Rectory's Fall 2020 Reopening
It is with great enthusiasm that I provide an update on Rectory's planning efforts as we prepare to welcome your children back to campus in the fall. As much as we rose to the challenge of distance learning this spring, a Rectory education is best experienced onsite, and we are so eager to see the faces, hear the voices, and enjoy the many talents and endearing traits our students bring to our campus.
From the beginning, our top priority has been to tend to the safety and wellbeing of our community. Consistent with this most important principle, Rectory's Re-Open plan follows the expert advice provided by regional and national educational, governmental, and public health organizations and institutions. Our plan also serves to provide your children with a most productive, most enjoyable school year. The following provides important information on how we will achieve this.
