Dear GMS Families,
I hope you and your family had a lovely weekend.
Our
COVID-19 Resource Center is live and brimming with specific details about what summer and fall will look like at Greensboro Montessori School. Specifically, we've included information about:
Our new Resource Center will be a living, breathing website. We will continue to update it as we confirm relevant details and make new decisions. We will also let you know when we push new information to the site.
To help us maintain our planning momentum, we need your continued partnership. Please take a moment to review this checklist:
- If you haven't taken our End-of-Year Survey, it's not too late! We are still listening and want to hear from you. Click here to take the survey.
- If you are currently registered for Summer Camp, keep an eye out for an email this week to confirm and complete your registration.
- If you are currently registered to participate in CASA this fall, you will notice that the makeup of our independent student groups, called "pods," will be heavily influenced by CASA enrollment. If for any reason, you no longer need before- or after-school care, please let us know immediately, so we can take it into consideration in our planning in the coming weeks.
- If you haven’t already seen it, watch this video about our School's response to the pandemic. Then, congratulate yourself for a job well done; celebrate your child; and know that we'll be ready for you in the fall.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any comments, questions, or thoughts, especially as they relate to our new COVID-19 Resource Center. There are some specific notes about how we will improve our Remote Learning program for next year in case we need it, such as daily live lessons in Lower Elementary and a stronger system of accountability and assessment school-wide. After this week's faculty work week, when we analyze survey results and plan for the fall, we will share more specific details.
As always, if you are experiencing a financial hardship due to COVID-19 that threatens your continued enrollment at our School,
please email me so we can find time to discuss options.
Here's to a great first week of summer.
