It is graduation day at "The Nest."
Please help us make to AWESOME by reviewing the procedures that have been put in place.
1. There will be designated seating areas on the football field for each family. The seating will be set up in individual family pods to allow for social distancing. We are limiting the on-field seating to 10 people per family, and we ask for families not to mingle before or after the ceremony.
2. There will be a designated seating area for Stewartsville School faculty and staff on the football field.
3. The main parking lot and circle drive will be limited to parking for graduates, graduate family members who are sitting on the field, and for district faculty and staff members.
4. Additional guests are welcome to attend the ceremony but will need to sit on the asphalt road on the west side of the field and park on the northside of the building or adjacent side streets. (The road will be blocked off the same as it is for a home football game.)
5. Graduates will need to meet in the school lobby at 11:30 am to prepare for the ceremony. Family members will not be allowed to enter the building. Graduates will enter the field from the southeast corner to begin the ceremony at noon.
6. After the ceremony, graduates will be dismissed back to the main parking lot individually along with their family members who are seated on the field. We ask for families to not mingle in the parking lot and to respect each other's personal family space.
Everyone better bring their sunscreen tomorrow Mr. Stephenson is preparing to give the "One More Thing" welcome and Mrs. Pottier is preparing to give the Class of 2020 Graduation Keynote Address. We are excited and can't wait to see the Cardinal Community tomorrow at noon on the football field❗#TheNest

The Stewartsville BOE approved the following Summer Sports & Activities Plan during their May meeting this past Monday.
Summer Sports & Activities Plan – Summer 2020
May - No sports or activities practices or contests unless connected with graduation ceremonies and approved by a principal or superintendent.
June - Beginning June 1, groups of ten or less will be able to meet for conditioning.
Workouts will be for 30-45 minutes at hour intervals (to allow for arrival/departure) and all social distancing guidelines will be followed during workouts.
Workouts will not involve balls or sports-specific instruction.
Workouts will be general aerobic and anaerobic conditioning and body-weight exercises.
Workouts will be conducted outdoors. No indoor facilities will be used. Activities (Band, choir, cheer) may not meet in June without approval from a principal or superintendent.
Cheer tryouts will take place in the gym and will be staggered to allow for arrival and departure.
Any other activity will be address on an individual basis with the cooperation of both teams of administration
July - If the most current state and local guidance allows by June 30, open facilities for weights and sports-specific practices on Monday, July 6.
Teams could have open gym/fields
August - Assuming the most current state and local guidelines allow, return to normal practices and contests.
If at any time the CDC determines that a “return to normal” may take place the previous guidelines will become null and void.
We, as the Stewartsville Staff, were beyond blessed to be able to come together today and celebrate the conclusion of a FANTASTIC school year. The pride and passion each of our staff members exhibits is beyond measure! Mr. Stephenson #TheNest #TheCardinalWay #CardinalVictory
