Principal Update
KES Staff
4-16-2020 to 4-24-2020
Dear Staff,
While we are moving into a new phase of continuous learning, please make sure to remember these ideas as we move forward:
- Our goal is to provide students and families with the 3 Cs during this time: communication, consistency, and control. These qualities feed the amazing relationships you developed with students in a brick and mortar setting and continue to develop remotely. For a refresher on the 3 Cs click here: https://www.edutopia.org/article/focusing-student-well-being-times-crisis.
- Social Emotional wellness is crucial right now, so please take care of yourselves--breath, exercise, sleep, put away the screens, and vent often. Encourage students to take care of their social emotional wellness through SEL activities and little reminders on your LMSs and Learning Packets.
- The uncertainty and fluidity of our current situation is real and will not change much. Just when we have eLearning in hand, a new need is going to pop up. Just when we think Covid-19 is dying down, it might pop up. Expecting and being mindful of the back and forth of this new environment will make it easier for us to go with the flow and connect with others.
- Despite a long road ahead, there will be a return to something that looks and sounds kinda normal and that that new normal will be brighter than ever.
As always, it is an honor and privilege to work alongside you all as we serve our KES community. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
My Best,
Del
