Superintendent's Listening Tour
Dear Mansfield School Community,
My goal is to listen more than talk during this meeting. I want to know what has worked for you and your children? What would you prefer distance learning to look like? Every grade, every subject, every student, every family is different and we are trying to meet all needs. This is an opportunity for me to hear from you as we prepare for September and beyond.
We will provide a link to access the meeting that day. The link will be posted on our district Facebook and Twitter accounts and our web page.
Sincerely,
Teresa Murphy
C.h.a.m.p.s. Summer Programs
C.H.A.M.P.S. will remain closed during the summer. This means that the Summer Institutes and the childcare program will not be in operation. We recognize that this is a disappointment for students, families and counselors, but we remain focused on our #1 goal and that is to have our schools ready for fall.
Transitions events
Robinson Kindergarten Orientation - Principal Sankey will host a virtual kindergarten orientation for families on Tuesday, June 16 at 7:00 PM. A link to the event will be posted on the Robinson web page, Facebook and Twitter early in the day.
Jordan/Jackson 3rd-Grade Meetings - Principal Nieratko will host a virtual orientation for families on Wednesday, June 17 at 7:00 PM. A link to the June 17th event will be posted that day.
Keeping with the tradition of 2nd-grade students meeting with 3rd-grade students, this year it will be done virtually! Robinson and Jordan/Jackson teachers will "buddy-up" via Google Meets. Students can ask questions and learn about Jordan/Jackson. These "meets" will be scheduled throughout the month of June.
QMS Incoming 6th-Grade Orientation - On Wednesday, May 27, Principal McGovern hosted a virtual meeting for incoming grade 6 families. A link to the presentation can be found below.
