Volunteer Readers - Mask Update

So sorry--I forgot to update the ad since the new mask mandate. This is what it should say:

Thetis Elementary is looking for volunteers in the community to read with our students on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 12:45 to 1:15. Volunteers will need to wash their hands upon entering the classroom, complete a self-assessment for Covid symptoms, and wear a mask at all times. We ask you to carefully consider the vulnerability of our students in the current situation. Our students are all wearing masks, but none are yet able to be vaccinated. We work hard to keep our children healthy and able to continue learning, and respectfully ask that you do all that you can to protect them as well. We look forward to welcoming community members back into our community school!

If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact Sarah Lucchetti:

Scam to Avoid

This morning my computer froze with a notification that a virus had attempted illegal access to several websites.  A voice message intoned that my computer had been locked up to prevent spreading the virus.  It warned me not to shut down or restart, as this could lead to loss of data or identity theft, but to call Windows security immediately at 1-866.......

Not trusting this number, I borrowed Veronica's computer and discovered:

1. Microsoft's number is not 1-866.....
2. Microsoft "to serve you better" do not answer the phone but refer you to a website (very useful when your computer is locked up!)
3. Microsoft notices never give a phone number to call.
4. There are several scams of this type.  If you call the number listed, they will either request access to your computer to "fix it" (i.e., steal all your data) or demand money to "fix it".

The way I fixed this was to force a shutdown, wait 30 seconds, restart and immediately update my antivirus program. So far so good.

Be warned!
