Week in Review:
Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
In looking back on the first three week, I can’t express enough how proud I am of our students, teachers, staff, and YOU families for making our phased opening so successful. We put in place some changes, and I appreciate how well everyone has adapted to these changes and made the most of these first three weeks. I included a lot of important information for you, so please look at my Friday email to get all of the details.
Continue to stay plugged in by looking at the weekly slideshow. I included directions on how to access the slideshow in last week’s email.
Need to Know:
- Clean Water Bottle and Mask: Please be sure to send your child to school with a clean water bottle and a clean mask. We are trying to do everything we can to keep our school and our students as clean and safe as possible.
- It’s a Team Effort: Please continue to practice and reinforce safe and healthy practices in the home to minimize risk and exposure to COVID-19 AND other germs and illnesses that come our way.
