#ToroFamily
Good Morning Toro Family! We hope you all had a great week and weekend. We will be sending these out each Monday morning throughout summer and will contain tips and links for families to stay engaged in learning throughout the summer, social/emotional supports for students and families available over summer, and any news concerning the upcoming school year. We have been very thankful and excited to be getting back postcards from students such as the one above. Please check out all of the sections below and if there is something you don't see that you think would be nice to have let us know.
MDUSD Update
Below is the message posted on our district website concerning return in the Fall. For more information please click here.
The 2020-21 school year will begin on August 13th, and we look forward to reopening, with safety, community, equity, and quality instruction at the forefront of our collective minds. This web page will be our communication and participation platform for staff, students, and our community to keep up-to-date on the progress we are making in our Roadmap to Reopen. You will find that our Roadmap to Reopen is a structured timeline that revolves around our three task force groups:
1) Health and Safety Task Force
2) School Operations Task Force
3) Technology, Teaching, and Learning Task Force
The purpose of our Task Forces is to provide input to the Board of Education on multiple school reopening scenarios that comply with applicable public health orders. The Board of Education will have the final responsibility to decide how Mt. Diablo Unified Schools will reopen. Going forward, you can expect that we will continue with our Friday Letters, that we will regularly update our Roadmap to Reopen, and that we will utilize a variety of communication methods to keep you informed.
*If you have not turned in your materials (textbooks, Chromebook, instrument, etc) please do so ASAP. Please reach out if you have any questions over summer, our contact information can be found below. Also, please continue to check our school website for the most current and up to date information. Take care and always remember to be safe, respectful, and responsible.
Incoming Students
If you are an incoming 6th grader and/or a new student to El Dorado you need to make an appointment to enroll and/or verify your address.
