South Fork Elem. Parent Newsletter
August 31-September 4, 2020
This is definitely a year to remember!
We are off to a great start and all groups of students are working and learning. We are so thankful that our area managed to avoid major damage from last week's storms. We are so happy to be back in school! It is important that you are communicating with your child's teacher to get up to date information. If you have not returned your packet of back to school forms, please send that back in asap. If you have a new address and/or contact numbers, please call the office so we can be sure to get those updated. Be sure that you join the teacher and bus driver REMIND groups and follow our FB page and our school website. We are doing our part to get info out to you so please help us by sharing information and helping us reach all parents. We will transition our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders back to full week classes by Friday thus ending the A/B student schedule. If you received a school laptop, we need it returned Mon or Tues between 9 and 11. Please call the office @ 664-2281 when you arrive.

Virtual Students
Virtual lessons began on Monday, Aug 14th. If your student is not logging into their Google Classroom daily, they will be marked absent and will fall behind on their learning. This is important and we discussed this with each parent before you started this process. They are going to need your help and you must be sure that you are checking our FB page and staying up to date on announcements. Make a schedule that works around your daily activities/work and prepare a place for your child to do their work. Virtual facilitators will continue to reach out to assist students. We know this is new and can be challenging but ask that you try to seek out answers and use the resources on www.lpsb.org that have been provided. If you want your student to return to school, contact Mrs. Thomason by email @ misti.thomason@lpsb.org and she will see if the school can accommodate your request.
Be sure to check out the DIGITAL HELP section on the www.lpsb.org website for lots of helpful resources. I've added a link below.
Bus Driver Remind Codes
Please join the REMIND group for your child's bus driver. This is a great way to communicate with your driver. Please remember that they are not allowed to reply during routes and will reply before or after their routes. Text the code for your child's bus to 81010 to join their REMIND group.
