Tuesday, Sept. 8th, was the First Day of On-campus Instruction for the 2020-21 school year. Students and teachers learned new health and safety protocols, and met new and returning friends. All seemed especially grateful they could spend a school day on campus with their teachers and classmates, and with minimal or no time spent in front of a computer screen.

Students took their first steps on the ECDS PK to 8th grade campus in order to meet their teachers for the 2020-21 school year. On Tuesday, September 8th, classes begin at Encinitas Country Day School’s beautiful 12-acre campus on Manchester Ave. in Encinitas. Extensive safety measures have been instituted to protect the health of students and staff members, while they enjoy the enriched learning environments at ECDS.

The ECDS “DROP ‘n SWAP” program began with a bang! Beloved ECDS Librarian, Mrs. Marasco, prepared sanitized care packages of reading books for students, and families set appointments and swung by the school for curb-side drop-off and pick-up. Just one more way that ECDS staff and families have rallied to keep continuity and learning in the lives of their students.
