SHS has a new AG teacher, Ms. Jessica Bochniak! She is a Seneca High School and ISU grad and lives in rural Marseilles. Jessica loves animals so of course, her favorite sports teams include the Bears, the Cubs, and the Bulls. Maybe that love for animals is why she owned National Award winning pet care business from the age of 13 to 21! If she wasn't a teacher she would like to be a state trooper, K-9 unit! Glad to have you as a Bobcat!

Somonauk School District will NOT allow the use of neck warmers/gaiters.


Information below is from the updated 8/14/20 IDPH guidelines.
Can athletic face coverings, e.g., neck warmers be used as a substitute for cloth face coverings?
CDC does not recommend use of athletic face coverings/neck warmers as a substitute for cloth face coverings. It is not known if athletic face coverings/neck warmers provide any benefit as source control to protect others from the spray of respiratory particles. ~~ Somonauk School District will NOT be allowing the use of neck warmers/gaiters.
How should cloth face coverings be cleaned and stored? Personal cloth face coverings should be taken home, laundered daily, dried in a dryer, and reused. Personal cloth face coverings should be stored between uses in a clean paper bag or breathable container.
When should a face covering be changed? Face coverings must be changed immediately if soiled, wet, or torn. ~~ Parents are encouraged to send with their student, 2 face masks and a brown paper bag for mask storage. ~~
