We're getting close! We are so excited to welcome your students back to campus next week for our first day of school, Thursday, July 22nd. Please note that Thursday is a short day which means we'll follow our typical Wednesday schedule. Forgot what our schedule was like before COVID? No worries! You can find our bell schedule here. In case you need to reference it again, it's always on our website and we'll have hard copies available in the office of both the bell schedule and the school calendar which can be found here.

In the coming days, I will be learning about the developing state and county COVID guidance regarding schools opening. As these things become clear, I will share them with our community. Some of my questions which I know you probably have also are:

• What does recess look like?
• What does lunch look like?
• Are masks required at all times indoors?
• Can families be on campus and to what extent? Just the first day?
• Volunteers?
• Events?
• Assigned bathrooms?

So much to learn in just a few short days, but our team is ready to jump into action and make this year an unforgettable experience for your #pennpanther!

Make sure you scan through this newsletter so you don't miss out on any upcoming important events or dates.

More to come,

Mrs. Fadeji

Adrian will go by Mr. Adrian with our students.

Hannah is SO excited to be back at Penngrove to be a panther again! She student taught here from 2016-2017 and then taught both 5th grade and 1st grade. She loves playing with her dog, Evie, eating sushi and Mexican food, and of course drinking all the coffee. She can’t wait to get the year started with this beautiful team and her new amazing 3rd graders!

Hannah will go by Ms. Stuyt with her students - it’s pronounced like “kite” but with an S in the front ;)
