Together Even Though

We Are Apart

Dear Eisenhower Families,

In these unprecedented times, I would like to take a moment to thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we come together as a community, state, and nation to help curtail the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Our grade level teams and specialists have been hard at work planning engaging and child-centered activities. Although we are apart, our staff will be available to provide virtual learning support during our distance learning days. We appreciate your continued effort of reading 20-minutes a night with your child and discussing their upcoming virtual choice board activity work. Our early childhood, kindergarten, and first grade team activity choice boards will be available Tuesday morning. We ask that you please sign in for daily attendance. Each student (or his/her parent) will log in between 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. each day to complete the Google Attendance Form in order to receive attendance credit for the day. Please click the underlined link Eisenhower Attendance form.

We look forward to this new adventure of virtual learning with you and your child,

Dr. Lambatos

Principal

Distance Learning Information

We are implementing Distance Learning (E-Learning) Plans starting Tuesday, March 17 in an effort to continue instruction and offer some consistency to our students. Teachers will be communicating individually or as teams to students (4-8) and parents (K-3) starting on Tuesday, March 17th.

Please know this is our first time implementing such plans, so we ask for your patience and understanding. We will continue to refine our systems and improve as we move along. The District’s eLearning plan has been approved by the Regional Office of Education and aligns with other local Districts.

There will be limited access to D23 facilities, however if you find that your child has forgotten a critical learning material at school, please contact your child’s principal via email to explore options for retrieving that item.

Special Education and English Language Learning supports will continue during each distance learning day. If you have specific questions related to this, please contact your child’s principal via email.

Century

Book Club

T he Principal's Century Book Club is a listing of children who read multiples of one hundred books during their years at Eisenhower School.

*Books can be read by parents or enjoy a shared reading with your child. Take turns, use voices, and, most importantly, have fun!

Remember to ask plenty of comprehension questions and discuss new vocabulary words!

Your child’s name will be added to the front foyer wall when they read their first one hundred books. Their name continues to be added with each 100 books they read.

Students will also receive a special prize from the office.

B ooks should be at the child’s reading level, and left to parent’s discretion.

Below, is a link to a form that you can download and print.

You may also list the books on a sheet of paper.

Setting aside 20-minutes a night for family reading with or to your child makes a world of difference.
