Next week wraps up the end of the Second Six Weeks! Students and staff have been hard at work! Thank you parents for your continued support and interest as well as partnership to ensure your child's success! It truly takes all of us working together!
We ask that you continue to refer to Parent Portal to access students grades, and communicate any concerns with classroom teachers. Please be sure to check your child's work folder that comes home and check the portal for grades regularly.
The Third Six Weeks will begin a new transitional phase for some of our students who will be making the transition to on-campus instruction.
**If your child will be transitioning to in-person instruction, additional information will be sent specifically to you. If your child is remaining online, additional information will be sent specifically to you as well.
**THERE WILL NOT BE TEACHER CHANGES TO STUDENTS ALREADY ON CAMPUS. Relationships and friendships continue to be established. Either the students transitioning to in person instruction will be added to current classrooms in some grade levels, and possibly the current virtual teachers will now have in class students as well. I will be working on plans this weekend.
If you have any concerns or celebrations to share, please don't hesitate to email me at lmaldonado@londonisd.net.
Sincerely,
Lori Maldonado
Intermediate Principal
