Dear Grades 2-5 Families,
We hope you had a terrific week! We have been very pleased with how smoothly on-site learning has progressed under our current AAWBB hybrid model.
Per previous communications, we will continue to prioritize on-site learning to the fullest extent that we believe it is safe to do so. As the children have adapted very well to the new safety protocols, we believe we are now ready to bring Grades 2-5 back to campus under our 4+1 model. Under this model, students will learn on site every day except Wednesday, which will remain a virtual learning day and continue to operate on its current schedule with chapel, mathematics, independent work, and specials classes.
Students will begin the 4+1 model for the second quarter, beginning November 9. As you may remember, children now rotate through their specials classes throughout the year to enable us to limit contacts between cohorts. Transitioning at the beginning of a new quarter enables the students to start their upcoming specials classes under a 4+1 model. We will also move parent-teacher conferences to Wednesday, November 18, to allow our students and teachers to settle into the new rhythm prior to the conference date.
Please let Zoe know if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing our Dragons on campus four days a week!
Sincerely,
