Message from the Principal - Jayne Hudson
The virtual year is off to a GREAT start! Classroom staff and students are getting to know each other. Teachers and staff are building learning communities. It's wonderful to see everyone working together to make the start to the year as successful as possible for our students!
Thank you for getting your child into the classroom and helping them to learn. Please keep the following in mind regarding the virtual learning environment.
Virtual Classroom Expectations
- Be dressed and ready to learn.
- Keep the camera and mic on. We love to see your child. It helps your child and the teacher stay engaged in the lesson.
- Stay close enough to monitor your child’s safety and provide help as they are participating in virtual learning.
- Review your child’s schedule. Know what links you’ll need for each class each day.
School Superintendent, George Arlotto is working hard to bring students back into buildings. Thank you for waiting patiently as more information becomes available.
"Good teaching is loving and listening, sharing and supporting. It is being passionately human. That is the point at which a good teacher begins." - Author Unknown
