Homer Highlights
Week of January 11, 2021
Dear Families,
We know that it will be an adjustment for everyone to get settled into the "old" routine. We know that some students were more successful than others during remote learning. Please know that all of the teachers and staff at Homer Community Schools are here to help support your students, wherever they are at! If you have concerns about your child's needs, academically, socially, or emotionally, please reach out to their teacher or any of our student support staff team. A request to speak with a support team member can be made at any time through our website at www.homerschools.net.
Don't Forget to Bring Your Device!!
Elementary students will be returning the following equipment to their classroom teachers:
- Chromebooks or Chrometabs, with chargers and cases
- Return to Learn Kits
HMS and HHS students will need to bring their Chromebooks daily, fully charged, ready to use in the classroom every day!
