Dear Families,
We are excited to announce a Virtual Family Night for our school community on Wednesday, May 12th! Please register at this link. Our team will walk you through the creation of activities that you can do at home with your scholars to help strengthen their math and reading skills! All materials to create the activities will be provided free of charge. The laughter and fun begins at 5:30 pm. A link for the Zoom session will be emailed to registered families prior to May 12th.
Educator Appreciation Week begins May 3rd! We'd like to surprise our staff with messages of gratitude directly from YOU! Please see the attachment below with more information on how to show your appreciation for all our teachers, interventionists, and support staff do each and every day for our scholars!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Laptop Care and Tips
All of our scholars have received devices for virtual learning. Below are a few tips to ensure the technology devices are not accidentally damaged or lost.
- Ensure the case remains on the iPad or Chromebook.
- Ensure food and drinks are not around the technology devices.
- Ensure scholars are stationary when using the iPad or Chromebook.
- Monitor data usage. (Make sure hotspots are turned off and disconnected when not being used for school work.)
- When lessons have concluded for the day, ensure the scholar places the device in the same location each day.
- Ensure the technology devices are plugged into the charger at the end of the day in order for the scholars to have a fully charged device for the next school day.
If you have any questions, please call the office at 810-768-3860.
