A Note from Mrs. Tate
April 17, 2020
Dear Elementary Parents,
We understand the impact of the district’s sustained closure has had on our families, staff and community. We appreciate your continued patience and support as we continue to navigate the situation with COVID-19. While we may not be physically in our schools, we remain available to our BISD community for support.
We have many supportive resources that can be found on our main BISD website www.boerneisd.net, as well as on our Distance Learning website which can be found at bit.ly/BISDathome. Feel free to contact your child’s teacher, counselor, or myself as needed.
Next week’s assignment details will be posted to your child’s course’ Google Classrooms by the end of the day Friday, April 17. All content course assignments have been designed to be completed by Thursday, April 23. For those students with limited/no digital access, instructional packets are available.
Below is a brief description of the work your child will be working on this week by subject.
As always, our thoughts continue to be with you and your families during this unprecedented time. Please email or call me with any questions.
