Dear Families of St. Anthony of Padua Catholic School,
We are (
hopefully
) at the halfway point of our distance learning program. This has been a journey with its fair share of challenges. I am so grateful to each of you for your extreme effort in making this partnership work between our school and our homes. THANK YOU! I am also so very grateful for our teachers. I have seen our teachers at every grade level putting in so many hours to push themselves as they teach in a method they never anticipated they would need to utilize.
Some parents have asked why we have continued with our academic rigor. It is important to us that we stay true to our mission and be respectful of your investment in us. I am so proud of the fact that we are not lowering our expectations or planning to have to restructure future curriculum because of anticipated deficits. Your students will be prepared for the next grade level without gaps. We know this may be challenging, but hope you will continue to be positive and supportive of our efforts.
This upcoming week we will launch more interactive instruction and live help sessions as we enter our third week of distance learning. Please remember to reach out to your teachers if you have any questions. They want to hear from you and address your concerns. We are all here to help!
Only by His Grace,
Veronica D. Tucker
Principal
