This morning, about 450 students returned to Steinm\u00fchle. It\u2019s a wonderful feeling to have life back on our school grounds after nine weeks of school closures. A big compliment to all students and staff who are adhering very diligently to our hygiene guidelines and social distancing rules. We\u2019re thrilled! Special thanks go to our two principals, Bernd Holly and Bj\u00f6rn Gemmer, who worked\u2014in some cases through the night\u2014to get this extraordinary reopening plan off the ground. We\u2019re confident that we\u2019ll be able to stick to our plan until summer break: Grades 5 through 8 will attend school in half-classes on a weekly rotation, alternating between in-person instruction and homeschooling, while grades 9 through 12 will be at Steinm\u00fchle continuously until the summer break. Our elementary school is permitted to resume operations on June 2! <\/p>\n
