Principal's Nest - Parent Edition
September 3rd, 2020
Dear Wise Owl Families,
Normal is such a simple word and it is our goal at WVE to not only find our new normal, but to use this time as a learning experience that will forever impact the learning environment of our students.Though we have started the year virtually, we will remain committed to supporting each student in building his/her academic and social/emotional strengths and have a plan in place to ensure rigorous online instruction and individualized support. Every week there are new types of learning experiences teachers are piloting and much of what is learned will continue to be used in the future. Our fall may not be “normal,” but our learning will not only continue, but it will thrive. We can’t wait to move on to the next phase of learning under Covid-19 and we know, all returning and new students to West View will be welcomed with open arms (from 6 feet away) to our community - we will continue to grow!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Mangum
