If you checked out a Moreland School District device for distance learning you will need to return it on June 8th or 9th from 10:00 - 2:00 at Anderson. In order to maintain safe social distances, we ask that one adult per family enter the campus for return and pick up. People must be wearing a face-covering in order to enter the campus. Devices will be returned to your child's classroom. Classroom teachers will have report cards, classroom materials, and any preordered yearbooks in bags for each child. If you did not preorder a yearbook they will be available for purchase, $10 each. As we transition to an enrichment learning menu the last week of school, copies will be available for pick up if you were unable to print it at home.

Due to Coronavirus (COVID-19), children who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals at school will get extra food benefits. These food benefits are called Pandemic EBT or P-EBT benefits. P-EBT benefits help families in California buy food when schools are closed because of the coronavirus emergency. Families will get up to $365 per eligible child on their P-EBT card to use on food and groceries. Families with children who get CalFresh, Medi-Cal or Foster Care benefits do not need to apply. Most will get their P-EBT card in the mail during the month of May. P-EBT cards will begin arriving around May 12, 2020 through May 22, 2020. Families with children who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals and who do not get their P-EBT card in the mail, must apply online before June 30, 2020. The online application will launch on May 22, 2020.

The Governor of California, Gavin Newsome, and the California State Superintendent, Tony Thurmond, have stated that school campuses in California will remain closed for the remainder of the school year due to the need to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
