Updated Middle School Device Policy
Beginning Thursday, January 30, middle school students will not be allowed to use personal cell phones, tablets, or other small mobile devices on the Logos campus between 8:00 am and 3:15 pm. All phones and tablets must be turned off and stowed away in students’ backpacks or lockers during the school day. This new policy will be in effect for the rest of the school year.
Students with laptops and Chromebooks may only use their laptop/Chromebook in class for school work with teacher permission. Middle school students may also use laptops or Chromebooks in the library for academic purposes during lunch or break time.
If students are caught with phones or tablets out of their backpacks or lockers during the school day, teachers and staff members will confiscate the device and bring it to the office. Parents may pick up their students’ phones or tablets after school.
Senior Transition Seminar
On Friday, February 21st, our senior class will meet in the Logos multipurpose room for our annual Senior Transition Seminar. Mr. Barrett and guest speakers will share practical tips and resources to help students say goodbye well, navigate life as an adult, and prepare for their transition to university. Our special guest speakers are experienced professionals in counseling and university transitioning for third culture kids.

We are encouraging students to consider presenting a unique talent. We are looking for a variety of different acts. Interested students can get an audition form from their teacher and turn it in to Ms. Rai (Gr.1) or Ms. Chheang (Gr. 2).

Volunteer History Day Judges Needed
We’re looking for volunteer History Day Judges on Thursday, February 27.
The Grades 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10 History students will be diligently working on papers, exhibits, websites, plays, and documentaries revolving around the theme of Breaking Barriers in History for Logos’ Fourth Bi-annual History Day, which will be held at Logos on Thursday, February 27.
We are seeking about 10 adult volunteers to help judge the students’ entries from 8:00 am until 3:00 pm. Judges for some categories do not need to be present for the entire day, so it is possible for volunteers to help out for only a few hours. Judges also do not need to be historical experts; they just need to have a good grasp of the English Language and a willingness to offer their opinions.
If you or someone you know is interested in helping, please contact Mrs. Young at jyoung@asianhope.org.

CoronaVirus Update
Dear Logos Parents,
We have been listening to the concerns that some have expressed concerning the Corona Virus and Logos’ approach to working through the current situation.
In response let me assure everyone that we have been conscientiously monitoring all news and more importantly the subsequent recommendations from public health organizations such as the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO). If circumstances change, we will be quick to adjust, but at present our school health policy is in complete compliance with those recommendations and remains in effect:
If a student is showing signs of a communicable illness, they should stay home. If they are at school with these symptoms, a parent will be asked to come and pick up their student. These symptoms include:
- Temperature over 38C or 100F
- Persistent, disruptive cough with yellow or green mucus
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea (persistent, disruptive, or with fever)
- Sore throat with swollen lymph nodes
- Uncovered, infected skin sores
- Eye infection
- Any other contagious illness (chicken pox, typhoid, rubella, dengue, etc)
A student with these symptoms should wait to return to school until they have been fever free for 24 hours without temperature-reducing medication (Tylenol, paracetamol, or ibuprofen). If antibiotics are required, then a child should not return to school until they have been on antibiotics for at least 24 hours. And in the case of vomiting or diarrhea, they should not return until they have been symptom free for 24 hours. There may also be times when a child does not exhibit these specific symptoms, but is not well enough to be at school. The School Nurse should be contacted in this type of situation.
In addition, our nurse, Courtney Hogue, has been personally contacting all families returning from China and conducting the appropriate screening.
We understand that it is easy to become fearful, especially in light of exaggerated reports and misinformation which is prevalent on the web. We hope that together we can faithfully navigate the present situation. If you have any specific concerns, please come to us.
Blessings,
Logos Administration
