2020/21 Elementary Principal Update
January 10, 2021
Dear Families,
Happy New Year! May this year bring you an abundance of joy, blessings, and good health.
On Monday, Jan. 18, our schools will be closed to commemorate the life and achievements of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His vision of peace, unity, and equity transformed our history. As we observe his birthday, we hope you take time with your children to reflect on the causes for which he lived and died – his dream of an America where people will be judged on the content of their character, not on the color of their skin. During this month, we encourage our families and staff to talk to children about the acts of justice and kindness and remember the work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by having students reflect on what they are willing to take a stand for and pledging to treat people fairly with kindness and compassion. What becomes of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s dream is truly up to each and every one of us.
Sincerely,
Emily Blaney, LCE Principal
Cory Pak, PCR Principal
Carrie Hetzel, PCY Principal

Reminder for Families: If a Cohort Closes at School
Anyone who is not considered a close contact will not be notified. Students in other cohorts, staff members, and even siblings are considered contacts of a contact and are not considered exposed or in any danger. This graphic may help clarify the difference.
