WELCOME BACK
Meet Your Teacher
We are excited to welcome our teachers back to the building! We are working hard to finalize logistics based on all survey data, and are making plans accordingly. Hopefully, the most current information that we have included in this newsletter will be helpful in answering your questions.
During a typical school year, we would post class rosters outside of the media center and cafeteria for you to come scout out your child's new teacher. However, for health/safety and social distancing purposes, we are planning things a bit differently this year:
- Your child's official "assigned" teacher will be reaching out to you no later than Tuesday, Aug. 11th to introduce themselves. At that time, they'll be able to share information about revised supply lists, expectations, device check-out and much more.
- In lieu of an open house event, each of our teaching teams are working on a digital resource to share with you soon that will introduce you to your child's teaching "team" for the year. As we plan for what our schedule will look like and eventually transition into a face to face setting, we know that it is possible your child will interact with more than just their "assigned" teacher. Our teams work collaboratively to create and share resources, so your child might receive instruction and feedback from one teacher in person, and another teacher(s) while doing remote learning.
- Although we will not be holding our typical Open House at this time, we do invite you to a drive-thru Meet & Greet on Thursday, August 13th. This will be an opportunity for you to drive through, meet your child's teaching team face-to-face (please wear your mask), pick up a device (if needed), and fill out beginning of year paperwork (in your car).

We understand that many of you have children in different grade levels, and rest assured, you are not required to drive through during each block of time if you do not want to. Teaching teams are putting together virtual "meet and greet" opportunities so that all families can take advantage of virtual options if they would prefer.
Keep in mind, if you are borrowing a device, those MUST be picked up during Open House times. You are welcome to come at a different time of the day than your scheduled time to pick up a device and complete paperwork if needed.
A SPECIAL Welcome to our Kindergarten Parents!!!
