Back to School
Whether students return to classrooms or virtual learning persists, there will be a new look and feel to school. But how long will it last? by AMBER TUELLER
8 SEARCHSOUTHAURORA | AUGUST 2020
B
ack to school is a common phrase that brings traditional feelings and images to mind – families going school shopping, kids organizing backpacks, and school open houses bring a feeling of new beginning and excitement. Students are returning to full-time learning and seeing classmates after the summer break. Summer is coming to a close and the crisp fall air will soon be here. Going back to school this year will be very different. With so many unknowns because of the COVID-19 crisis, school districts are fielding a lot of questions and are having to put a variety of new policies in place. They have consulted health organizations and considered many options. After feedback from educators, community members, health care professionals, students, and parents, Aurora Public Schools has put together a plan of action for the 2020-2021 school year. Aurora Public Schools will begin the school year with remote learning due to a recent rise in Coronavirus cases in the Adams and Araphaoe counties. This will continue through the first quarter. The possibility of returning to inperson learning after October 8th will contintue to be considered. Go online to find out details and get a feel for how remote learning will take place. For more information, visit aurorak12.org. See Back to School for 2020-2021. Good luck to families and educators at this unique and challenging time!

SUMMER’S LAST CALL BY SEARCH SOUTH AURORA STAFF
In the face of current challenges, we have hope and opportunities for positive recreation as summer draws to an end. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced an unprecedented global shut down. The impacts on sport and active living have been transformative, complex, and highly uneven. Sporting mega events and sporting leagues have been cancelled, closed, or postponed, and fitness centers, rehabilitation centers, and sport clubs have all been negatively impacted. In our current world full of closures, we’re grateful to have some businesses open, even at limited capacity. In Aurora, the Moorhead, Beck, and Central Recreation Centers reopened in early July and have supplied some much needed recreation to our limited options. Del Mar Water Park and Meadow Hills Outdoor Pool recently opened as well. The staffs at these locations are taking great lengths to maintain clean and safe environments to allow them to remain open. And while many COVID-19 adjustments have affected “normal” operations, they are still available for a variety of activities.
These facilities house strength and cardio equipment, walking and running tracks, and basketball gyms. The Beck Center Recreational Center pool is currently closed, but Moorhead and Central locations will have a handful of time slots that can be reserved for lap swimming or water walking. Other outdoor pools offer 40 individual time slots for reservation and 10 walk-up time slots. Pool time slots last for an hour and a half. After a few months of living in various levels of quarantine, the opportunity to exercise and be involved with others through recreation is good for all of us – physically, socially, and mentally. Community health is still a great concern, so restrictions have been set to keep safety as a top priority. A list of recreation center restrictions can be found on the city website. While limited staff and strict circumstances require extra patience and understanding, it is a blessing to take advantage of our city’s great facilities!

WE ASKED AN EXPERT
Expert guidance will continue as building begins. The sales and construction team will walk the buyer through important milestones and provide progress updates. Home consultants apprise the buyer of the adjustments and corrections that can happen during the building process. Before closing, there will be a meeting with a warranty representative to demonstrate how to use and properly maintain all the components of the new home. As the project draws to a close, everyone who helped anticipates move-in day with excitement.
How to Make Your House a Home Cardel Homes' Sara Dieringer Vice President of Operations and Sales
In the world of online shopping and factory production, building a home is one of the few remaining things created by man, in real time, in the public’s eye. However, many people find this process overwhelming. At Cardel Homes, a group of experts helps the buyer through every step. One doesn’t have to be a professional designer or a construction manager to enjoy the benefits of building a new home. The sales team, the buyer's main point of contact, will help by explaining the terms of the contract, the build process and what to expect at each stage. They can assist in choosing the lot and floorplan. After this, the buyer will move to the next phase, going to the design center to work with a professional designer putting the interiors together while staying within budget. 12 SEARCHSOUTHAURORA | AUGUST 2020
Cardel Homes, which started as a small family-owned business in 1973 and is now an international company, has shaped over 150 communities and built over 20,000 homes. Despite growth, Cardel retains the best attributes of a family-run business – quick reflexes, tight-knit management, and an ironclad dedication to quality and community. Each of their neighborhoods focuses on establishing a strong sense of belonging. They are the company to choose when building a home!
