Winston School Update
March 25, 2020
Dear Winston Community,
Congratulations to our talented faculty and staff and to our students for a successful launch of Winston's distance learning plan!

As we navigate this unprecedented situation, I encourage you to reach out with any questions you have. Although school is closed, we have staff on campus to ensure all your needs are met.
As of now, school will be closed through April 9th. As a reminder, April 10th is Good Friday and there is no school that day. If plans change, I will update you accordingly. As a community, we hope to continue to provide our students with meaningful lessons that will help structure their day. Below, please find a few at-home tips to incorporate within your daily activities.
Today's Tip:
Make sure your children are getting fresh air. Go for a walk around your neighborhood, do school work on the back patio, or go for a bike ride. Although we should all maintain social distancing, it should not prevent you from spending time outdoors in this beautiful weather!

The Big Give (scheduled for March 26) has been postponed until September 10, 2020. However, you can still make a gift to the school here to help offset costs associated with Winston's response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
