Families and Friends, Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year at Lopez Elementary! We are very excited that your family will be with us this year. We have many activities and events planned that will enable you to become a dynamic member of our Lopez community. A strong school is not only made of great teachers and staff, parents and community members play a big role. When we all work together our children see that the adults are on the same page, working as hard as we can make them successful students. In return, the children tend to work that much harder and enjoy learning. As you are aware, this year will be very different then in the past. No matter which option of instruction you choose for your children, in person or eLearning, we are here to assist you any way we can with academic and social-emotional issues. As a school and as a school district we are here to support you as we navigate through these unprecedented times. The first day of school is Monday, August 24, 2020. Student times are as follows: • Monday 7:40 A.M. – 12:55 P.M. ( Early release day) • Tuesday- Friday 7:40 A.M. – 1:55 P.M. The student day begins at 7:10 each day to get breakfast and report to their classroom. STUDENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON CAMPUS BEFORE 7:10 A.M AS THERE IS NO ADULT SUPERVISION UNTIL THAT TIME. Safety is always our top priority. With that in mind, it is important that everyone follows the safety rules and procedures that we have in place. Please make sure you check our Lopez Elementary Schools web site regularly as we will use it to keep all of our families up to date on the latest news and activities. Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and Facebook as well, we will try to post pictures of some of the fun activities we hope to have throughout the year. Thank you for your support and together we can make this a great year. Michael Engle Principal Lopez Elementary

Families and Friends,
Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year at Lopez Elementary! We are very excited that
your family will be with us this year. We have many activities and events planned that will
enable you to become a dynamic member of our Lopez community. A strong school is not only
made of great teachers and staff, parents and community members play a big role. When we all
work together our children see that the adults are on the same page, working as hard as we
can make them successful students. In return, the children tend to work that much harder and
enjoy learning.
As you are aware, this year will be very different then in the past. No matter which option of
instruction you choose for your children, in person or eLearning, we are here to assist you any
way we can with academic and social-emotional issues. As a school and as a school district we
are here to support you as we navigate through these unprecedented times.
The first day of school is Monday, August 24, 2020.

Lopez Elementary
The map outlines where students will be dropped off or picked up. Student drop off and pick up will take place on the side
of the school facing Old Hillsborough Avenue. When arriving at school, cars will form a single lane as they enter the
parking lot off of Old Hillsborough Avenue. You must wait for the car line to move to the drop off point before your child
will be assisted out of the car by patrols. On the first few days, PTA volunteers will assist students to their classes. After
the child exits from the car, move forward. You will exit off of the campus back onto Old Hillsborough Avenue. If you
are turning left on Old Hillsborough, please be careful of the pedestrian crosswalk as walkers and bike riders will be
crossing. If you plan to park and walk your child to class, limited parking is available in the middle of the car loop.
Parking in the car lane is prohibited. No one in the car lane should leave their car unattended.
Dismissal will also occur in the front parking loop. Parents are asked to place a large card in their front window with
the child’s name clearly written. Children will be kept on the side of the building until your car is visible. Using the
sign, a staff member will call the child’s name by radio. Children will be supervised while waiting hallway for their name
to be called. Please do not get out of your car to come and retrieve your child. If for some reason your child does not
come right away, you will be asked to move forward and an assistant will go and check on your child. It may take
children a little time to come to the car until they have learned the procedure. Please find time before pick-up on the first
day to make a sign for your car. You can pick up a Lopez Car Tag at Meet and Greet. No pedestrians may enter the school
using the bus ramp. Walkers must use the sidewalk leading to the front of the school. Upon dismissal parents who want to
meet their child to walk home may meet them at the walker’s gate located on the North East Corner along Windhorst
Road. No parent may park in the carline.

Dear HCPS Families, As we anxiously await the return to school for our learners who selected brick and mortar, it is important to continue to share critical information with all stakeholders. As you can imagine, there are many questions regarding the return to school for any student or staff member who has tested positive for COVID-19 or who has been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. For your review, please see the charts below that contain relevant details for school-based incidents. Positive COVID-19 Result for Employees or Students
Action Self-Isolation
Time Duration 10 days
Start of Self-isolation -Symptomatic
Date symptoms first appeared
Start of Time -Asymptomatic
Date COVID-19 test administered
End of Self-isolation At least 10 days have passed and If symptomatic, at least 24 hours have passed since fever without fever-reducing medication and other symptoms
have improved
Employee or Student who has been in Close Contact with Positive COVID-19 Result
Action Self-quarantine
Time Duration 14 days
Start of Self-quarantine Date last exposed to positive COVID-19
End of Self-quarantine After 14 days (if no symptoms have appeared)
We are asking all parents to monitor their children for symptoms each day before reporting to school. If your child is sick, or exhibiting symptoms, he or she should stay home. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), symptoms of COVID-19 are fever of 100.4 degrees or chills, shortness of breath, cough or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, and diarrhea. Please know that we will work with every learner regarding attendance protocols and how we will continue the instructional process. If you have questions related to our district response to COVID-19, you may send an email to [email protected], call our COVID hotline at 272-4788, or refer to our School Reopening Plan Frequently Asked Questions at hillsboroughschools.org. Thank you for being an ongoing partner in our work. Respectfully, Addison Davis
