Dear Parents, I want to thank you for your patience and the help that you have given your students as we have been in this Learning-at-a-Distance mode for the last two weeks. Unless Covid-19 numbers in Amargosa Valley rise significantly over the Winter Break, we will return to our Face-to-Face learning model on Monday, January 4th. Please make sure that your students bring their Chromebooks back to school when they return. To help other students and staff remain healthy, please do not allow any Covid-19 positive students to come back to school until they have met CDC guidelines for returning to public places. In addition, if any of your students are experiencing Covid symptoms, please follow the CDC Guidelines (test within 48 hours and self-quarantine for 10 days if they test positive). Ultimately, for us to stay open, we all need to be as careful and diligent as possible following CDC Guidelines with respect to social distancing, mask wearing, and sanitizing hands. In addition, please note that today is the final day that the Amargosa Valley School will be providing any meals until the second semester begins In many ways this semester has flown by – we really enjoy working with your students and feel good about the learning processes in our school. I am sure the staff joins with me in wishing you all a wonderful holiday season! Sincerely, Chuck Fannin, Principal, Amargosa Valley School Queridos padres, Quiero agradecerles por su paciencia y la ayuda que les han brindado a sus estudiantes ya que hemos estado en este modo de Aprendizaje a Distancia durante las últimas dos semanas. A menos que los números de Covid-19 en Amargosa Valley aumenten significativamente durante las vacaciones de invierno, volveremos a nuestro modelo de aprendizaje presencial el lunes 4 de enero. Asegúrese de que sus estudiantes traigan sus Chromebooks (computadoras) a la escuela cuando regresen. Para ayudar a otros estudiantes y al personal a mantenerse saludables, no permita que ningún estudiante positivo de Covid-19 regrese a la escuela hasta que haya cumplido con las pautas de CDC para regresar a lugares públicos. Además, si alguno de sus estudiantes experimenta síntomas de Covid, siga las pautas de CDC (pruebe dentro de las 48 horas y póngase en cuarentena durante 10 días si dan positivo). En última instancia, para mantenernos abiertos, todos debemos ser lo más cuidadosos y diligentes posibles siguiendo las pautas de CDC con respecto al distanciamiento social, el uso de máscaras y la desinfección de manos. Además, tenga en cuenta que hoy es el último día en que la escuela de Amargosa Valley proporcionará comidas hasta que comience el segundo semestre. En muchos sentidos, este semestre ha pasado volando; realmente disfrutamos trabajar con sus estudiantes y nos sentimos bien con los procesos de aprendizaje en nuestra escuela. Estoy seguro de que el personal se une a mí para desearles a toda una maravillosa temporada navideña. Sinceramente, Chuck Fannin, Director, Escuela Amargosa Valley

Amargosa Schools Going Back to Face to Face Instruction with all Students Parents, After many discussions with teachers, parents, and NCSD administrators, it has been decided that Amargosa Elementary and Middle Schools will go back to face to face instruction at the beginning of the Second Quarter for all of our students who want to learn in that manner. The vast majority of our students who started out the school year as Distance Only Learners have decided to come back to school as face to face learners. The small number of students who still want to continue as Distance Only Learners will be assigned to Distance Only Learning teachers in Pahrump and they will continue with their online only learning. So, next Monday, October 12th, we will extend our school day to 2:10 P.M. indefinitely. The bus routes will be adjusted accordingly and will be published on our School Website and School Facebook Page by 3:00 P.M. this Thursday, October 8th. Our students will still be expected to do some school work at home since they will be coming a little earlier than they would in a normal year. Students will be responsible for that work at home and will document it according to their teachers’ directions. Please ask your students when they come home each day what they are required to do for their at-home classwork. We believe that this new schedule will benefit our students tremendously. Teachers will be able to do more small-group reading and math activities. In addition, they will have more time to do more real world learning applications with their students, especially in the areas of Science and Social Studies. If you have any questions or concerns about this new schedule, please do not hesitate to contact me at cfannin@nyeschools.org or at 775-372-5324. Sincerely, Chuck Fannin Principal, Amargosa Valley Schools Las Escuelas de Amargosa Volverán a la Instrucción Cara a Cara con Todos los Estudiantes Padres, Después de muchas discusiones con maestros, padres y administradores del distrito, se decidió que las escuelas primarias e intermedias de Amargosa volverán a la instrucción cara a cara al comienzo del segundo trimestre para todos nuestros estudiantes que quieran aprender de esa manera. La gran mayoría de nuestros estudiantes que comenzaron el año escolar como aprendices a distancia han decidido regresar a la escuela como aprendices cara a cara. La pequeña cantidad de estudiantes que todavía quieren continuar como aprendices a distancia serán asignados a maestros de aprendizaje a distancia en Pahrump y continuarán con su aprendizaje solo en línea. Entonces, el próximo lunes 12 de octubre, extenderemos nuestro día escolar a las 2:10 p.m. indefinidamente. Las rutas de autobús se ajustarán en consecuencia y se publicarán en nuestro sitio web de la escuela y en la página de Facebook de la escuela antes de las 3:00 p.m. este jueves 8 de octubre. Aún se espera que nuestros estudiantes hagan algún trabajo escolar en casa ya que llegarán un poco antes de lo que lo harían en un año normal. Los estudiantes serán responsables de ese trabajo en casa y lo documentarán de acuerdo con las instrucciones de sus maestros. Por favor, pregunte a sus estudiantes cuando regresen a casa cada día qué deben hacer para el trabajo de clase en casa. Creemos que este nuevo horario beneficiará enormemente a nuestros estudiantes. Los maestros podrán realizar más actividades de lectura y matemáticas en grupos pequeños. Además, tendrán más tiempo para hacer más aplicaciones de aprendizaje del mundo real con sus estudiantes, especialmente en las áreas de Ciencias y Estudios Sociales. Si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud sobre este nuevo horario, no dude en comunicarse conmigo al 775-372-5324. Sinceramente, Chuck Fannin Director, Escuelas de Amargosa

Pizza Party Reward for Growth and Exiting from WIDA program. This year we had 8 students exit from the WIDA process. Every January, English Language Learners (ELL) that have not shown proficiency in the English language are assessed to determine their level in reading, listening, speaking and writing. The data collected helps teachers to provide instruction to each of their ELL students. We provide encouragement and incentive for them to succeed. The students enjoyed stuffing themselves with Pizza. We handed out certificates and gave our hard workers a round of applause. A Great Big Thank you to Martell’s for delivering the purchased pizza and supplying each student with Reese’s peanut butter cup and drink.

Reapertura de Escuela 28 de julio de 2020 Familias del Norte del Distrito Escolar del Condado de Nye, Con el clima siempre cambiante de COVID-19, hemos trabajado para desarrollar un horario que se adapte a las necesidades de los alumnos en persona y en línea en nuestras Escuelas del Norte para que puedan ser apoyados por su maestro asignado. Los estudiantes que asisten a las escuelas Amargosa, Beatty, Round Mountain y Tonopah tienen la opción de asistir en persona cuatro días a la semana o en línea, también cuatro días a la semana. El horario que ve a continuación se ha ajustado tanto para los alumnos en persona como en línea para que nuestros maestros puedan satisfacer mejor las necesidades de todos los estudiantes durante este tiempo sin precedentes. Si elige que su estudiante participe en el aprendizaje en línea, deberá completar el Contrato de Aprendizaje a Distancia. Puede acceder a este contrato en persona en la escuela asignada de su hijo o en el sitio web del Distrito Escolar del Condado de Nye en www.nye.k12.nv.us. Este formulario se entregará a la secretaria de su estudiante (en persona, por fax o correo electrónico) a más tardar el 6 de agosto. También se le enviará otra encuesta el miércoles 29 de julio solicitándole su preferencia por la educación de sus estudiantes durante el año escolar 2020-2021. Tómese el tiempo para completar esta encuesta, ya que ayudará a los administradores a determinar el tamaño de las clases y las medidas de distanciamiento social. También queremos informarle que los casilleros (lockers) no estarán disponibles para el uso de los estudiantes. Se le recomienda comprar a su estudiante (K-12º grado) una mochila con una funda para computadora portátil, ya que llevarán su Chromebook a la escuela todos los días. Si aún no hemos recibido el Chromebook de su hijo desde la primavera, no emitiremos otro hasta que lo recibamos. ** Se requerirá tiempo adicional para las tareas para los estudiantes en persona después del lanzamiento del día escolar para cumplir con las expectativas educativas ** Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre este cronograma, no dude en comunicarse con el administrador de su edificio. Gracias. Chuck Fannin, Subdirector, Escuelas Amargosa / Beatty

Reopening Letter to Parents July 28, 2020 Northern Families of Nye County School District, With the ever-changing climate of COVID-19, we have worked to develop a schedule that will suit the needs of both in-person and online learners in our Northern Schools so that they can be supported by their assigned teacher. Students who attend Amargosa Schools, Beatty Schools, Round Mountain Schools, and Tonopah Schools have the option of either attending in-person four days per week or attending online, also four days per week. The schedule you see below has been adjusted for both in-person and online learners so our teachers can best meet the needs of all students during this unprecedented time. If you choose to have your student participate in online learning, you will need to fill out the Distance Learning Contract. You can access this contract either in person at your child’s assigned school or on the Nye County School District website at www.nye.k12.nv.us. This form will be due to your student’s secretary (in-person, via fax, or e-mail) no later than August 6th. Another survey will also be sent to you on Wednesday, July 29th asking you for your preference for your students' education during the 2020-2021 school year. Please take the time to complete this survey as it will help administrators determine class sizes and social distancing measures. We also want to inform you that lockers will not be available for student use. You are advised to purchase your student (K-12th grade) a backpack with a laptop sleeve in it as they will bring their Chromebook to and from school daily. If we have not yet received your child’s chromebook back from the spring, we will not issue another until it is received. **Additional time for assignments will be required for in-person students following the release of the school day to meet educational expectations** If you have any questions regarding this schedule, please do not hesitate to contact your building administrator. Thank You. Chuck Fannin, Assistant Principal, Amargosa/Beatty Schools

Parents, Guardians, and Community Members, We know you have been asked to fill out several surveys recently, but we would appreciate your attention to one more. This survey is meant to provide the grants department with guidance and data while writing for 20/21 grants, which will be critical for our operations in what is likely to be a challenging budget year. The survey contains 20 topics and asks you to rate each topic's importance to you and your satisfaction with district implementation. A blank response will be counted as not-applicable for you, so you are welcome to leave items blank. Please click here to take the survey: https://bit.ly/NyeGrantSurvey2020
