Dear SRCS Community:
Today’s updates follow:
SCHOOL CLOSURE
- In collaboration with seven Bay Area county health officials and county superintendents, Marin County has made a unified, regional decision to extend school closures and student dismissals from regular school attendance through May 1, 2020 to slow the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) to the maximum extent. The safety and wellness of students, school personnel, and the community are our highest priority.
HIGH SCHOOL CHROMEBOOK DEPLOYMENT
- This Thursday, March 26, TERRA LINDA HIGH SCHOOL students without access to a computer at home can come to Terra Linda or Bahia Vista to check-out a Chromebook. Please arrive at the time specified on the SRCS Chromebook Deployment Flyer.
- This Friday, March 27th, SAN RAFAEL HIGH SCHOOL students without access to a computer at home can come to San Rafael High School or Bahia Vista to check-out a Chromebook. Please arrive at the time specified on the SRCS Chromebook Deployment Flyer.
- Please refer to the SRCS Chromebook Deployment Flyer for the time your student should arrive based on his/her last name and the requirements to check out a Chromebook. If possible, please fill out this permission slip which will be required from all students checking out a Chromebook. We will also have hard copies available on site.
MIDDLE SCHOOL CHROMEBOOK DEPLOYMENT
- This Monday, March 30th, DAVIDSON MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS who do not have access to a computer at home can come to Davidson or Bahia Vista to check-out a Chromebook.
- This Tuesday, March 31st, VENETIA VALLEY STUDENTS who do not have access to a computer at home can come to Venetia Valley or Bahia Vista to check-out a Chromebook.

ELEMENTARY
- SRCS will be releasing new TK-5 packets (for the period of 3/30-4/17) at the beginning of next week. Stay tuned for how we will distribute the packets this coming Friday.
REMOTE LEARNING
- Students should check their Google Classroom and/or Canvas Classroom and srcs.org email daily for instruction from their teacher/s.
- Just a reminder to check-out our SRCS Remote Learning website that continues to be updated with new resources.
DONATION DRIVE FOR HEALTHCARE WORKERS
- Our SF and Marin County hospitals need masks, gloves, goggles, and face shields. If you have any (unused) supplies from your emergency and wildfire kits or from business stockpiles, please consider donating them! The collection of items is this Friday and Saturday from 10am-3pm at Bon Air, Greenbrae. Thank you!
SPRING BREAK (April 6-April 10)
- Please note that SRCS Spring Break is scheduled from 4/6-4/10. During this time, no new assignments will be posted on Google Classroom or Canvas. We would encourage you to take this week to reduce screen time for students as we know Remote Learning has led to a steep increase. Use this time to be in nature (while practicing physical distancing), write a letter to a friend, journal, play family games, and read, read, read. If students choose to do so, they could also make up missed work from previous weeks on Google Classroom or Canvas. If you are looking for additional learning resources during this Spring Break we would encourage you to view our SRCS Remote Learning website.

Dear SRCS Community:
Today’s updates:
We have unfortunate information that Marin County’s Public Health Officer, Dr. Matt Willis has tested positive for COVID-19, making him Marin’s 39th confirmed case. Dr. Willis recorded a video message to the community from his home on Sunday night, where he has been self-quarantined from his family since his symptoms first appeared late last week. Deputy Public Officer, Dr. Lisa Santora, will lead the operations as Dr. Willis recovers. Dr. Willis has been a visible leader of Marin’s COVID-19 response work. Our thoughts are with Dr. Willis and his family, and we are grateful for his work surrounding COVID-19.
FOOD SERVICES
- SRCS continues to distribute free meals (lunch and breakfast for the following day) to all SRCS students under the age of eighteen. Please bring your child’s School ID with you. Thank you! Location: Bahia Vista: 125 Bahia Way, San Rafael | Hours: 11:30AM- 12:30PM Monday through Friday.
- We are working with the SF/Marin Food Bank to increase the amount of days to serve food pantries to our community. Please expect to hear the dates and timing directly from your home school.

- If your child does not have access to a device at home review the SRCS Chromebook Deployment Flyer for location, time, permission slip and requirements to check out a device.
REMOTE LEARNING
- Communications regarding your child’s remote learning will come directly from your school. We are constantly updating our SRCS Remote Learning Website so please visit us often for various resources!
- For TK-5th graders: we are in the midst of printing out more packets and will be in communication on how those will be disseminated.
In an effort for all to stay informed with reliable information, we want to offer you a few resources:
- On March 24 from 5-6pm there is a Virtual Town Hall with Representative Jared Huffman, Marin County Public Health, and Mary Jane Burke, Superintendent of Schools at the Marin County Office of Education.
