Dear Parents and Guardians,
Teachers and student completed the first 4.5 weeks of fall semester yesterday. Thanks to you and your students for a fantastic virtual school opening. Teachers and students are up and running, and I am very pleased with the teaching and learning occurring in our virtual environment. Teachers are engaging students daily. Our student attendance rate remains above 90% - which is fantastic!
I know many students, parents and teachers remain anxious about what our next steps will be with reopening the building and students returning face to face. There is still uncertainty about the actual date when we will move into Phase II of the Reentry Plan as it is based on ever changing data. Please know once face to face instruction begins, families will have the option of whether to continue with virtual learning or participate in the hybrid face to face model. I truly appreciate your patience as we continue our journey through Covid-19. Please read the following updates and check out the links.
