#Gatornation is #1
Dear Gompers Families,
Thank you for all the students and parents for the special cards of acknowledgment for our teachers who have not only served the storm of this national pandemic but RISEN to show that they are genuinely an AMAZING GROUP of EDUCATORS!!! Dropping the cards off to the doorstep to the teachers was a special treat. This picture above is a "chalk art mural" dedication to our teachers' from parent Ms. D. Fisher, merely stating what I feel that "digital teaching" pushed TEAM GOMPERS to be the best!
CHANGES: Please be advised, ATTENDANCE with HLO/Distance Learning is now being taken through Google Meet and or Zoom with the classroom teacher. Please ensure your child is in attendance at the scheduled "face to face" time designated by their teacher.
Beginning, May 26th we will begin the first phase of office personnel and staff with "returning to work" from 8 to 4. The office will still be closed to the public and only accessible by appointment and wearing face-covering to enter. More specific details to come.
Again, If you are still having technology challenges via a CHROMEBOOK device or internet service, please contact me or call the office with the number below.
Stay well and safe!
Respectfully - Dr. Miller
