Message from your Proud Principal
Happy New Year! We enjoyed welcoming students back to school from winter break! We are excited about the teaching and learning that is taking place at Parsons during 2022!
GCPS has three Digital Learning Days (DLD) scheduled on the following dates this semester: 1/25, 3/2, and 3/22. In preparation for DLDs, students who have a Chromebook checked out will take their Chromebook and charger home with them each day starting today. Students should bring the Chromebook and charger back to school with them in their backpacks each day. This will provide an opportunity for students to continue learning using their device at school as well as at home. At home students can access their teacher's eCLASS course page as well as programs to practice grade level AKS.
Students, staff, and visitors have done a great job coming to school wearing masks each day. In addition to wearing masks, the staff provides opportunities during the day to allow students to wash their hands. Hand sanitizer and other resources to disinfect and sanitize high touch surfaces are used to keep our students and staff safe. We have also transitioned to decreasing the number of students in the cafeteria and having students sit spaced apart while in the cafeteria. Due to the increase in community spread, for now, we are returning to limiting visitors in the school building.
Thank you for your support in helping us ensure each student at Parsons reaches his/her highest level of learning and for keeping our students and staff as safe as possible.
Your Proud Principal,
Laura Clark
