Dear St. John’s Parish Day School Families,
We hope this email finds you all well and enjoying healthy days together!
The SJPDS faculty are preparing to send out regular bulletins to parents and students featuring Distance Learning tools that can be implemented simply and easily. Our Early Childhood (EC) families will receive emails from faculty several times per week sharing ideas across subject areas. Our Lower School (LS) students received a packet on Friday that will get them off to a strong academic start. On Sunday, each LS family will receive information for our online Google Classroom platform. We have set up a
COVID-19 Resource Page
on our website for current information and free resources with a variety of ideas and learning tools. Also, please revisit the many books we have read over the past eight months in our
Read with St. John's video series
.
Currently, our school building is on lock down and receiving extensive hospital-grade cleaning. Previously scheduled for spring break, our windows and gutters are being cleaned, as well. At this time, we have cancelled Spring Campus Clean-up. Our faculty and staff are all healthy and well, and we look forward to continuing to work together with you in the coming days and weeks. Please know we are all available by email Monday through Friday.
Unfortunately, this continues to be uncharted territory and we are all learning a great deal every day together. We will continue to strive to maintain a sense of community and togetherness as we all navigate COVID-19. We will continue to update you on any additional information as we learn what next steps can be taken for our community. We thank you for all your understanding and support during these difficult times.
Take care of yourselves and your families and stay safe and healthy!
Warm regards,
Lori Dembo
Head of School
