School Closure
This marks the end of our second week of our official school closure. I know many of our families have been missing school and the connections we make there. I sure am! The district personnel and school board are tracking the global pandemic closely. Our current reopening date is April 13th. However, the District is working closely with both County and State Health officials to determine when it will be appropriate to return. There will absolutely be more communication regarding our timelines before April 13th that will inform all parents and students of the plan moving forward. If our school does indeed remain closed to protect the health and safety of our students, I plan to be available for weekly meetings and phone calls. It will be like our "Coffee with the Principal" meetings, but using Zoom.
Message from Carrie Thompson, School Social Worker
Dear Sycamore Canyon Families,
I will be on Spring Break from 3/28 - 4/12. Before we go on Spring Break, I wanted to email you about a few new resources available on the front page of Santee School District website www.santeesd.net, and by clicking the links below.
The first is a resource that the Santee School District Counseling team has compiled called How to Help Your Child Cope During Changing Times. This resource contains videos, activities and websites to help children and teenagers cope with anxiety and stress. Here is the link to this resource: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19v_B25OgmzEimB0P9ftEKKbPMmTbwUmew4UpXX8PjPI/edit?usp=sharing
The second is a Community Mental Health Resources page. Here is the link to this resource: http://www.santeesd.net/cms/lib/CA01000468/Centricity/Domain/36/SSD%20Community%20Mental%20Health%20Resources%20sheet.pdf
