THANK YOU!
Dear Families,
Thank you for all your patience and positivity during the first week of school! We feel very fortunate to have your support and we loved seeing our students through ZOOM. We are so proud of how hard our children are working to stay engaged in our virtual learning platform.
We are working on ways to build our school community to stay connected. In GA Remote, students and classes will be getting involved in school announcements and we will have a schoolwide positive behavior reward system. More information to come.
Materials Update for Cyber and Remote: Thank you for picking them up! If you didn't get them yet, come any day between 8 AM and 4 PM. We owe some third and fourth graders Math workbooks. Although we ordered them last winter, due to COVID, the company was delayed in processing and sending the books. As soon as they arrive, we will get them to you. Thank you for your patience!
From the PTO: The PTO will once again be using Membership Toolkit (MTK) as our online directory and PTO portal. With MTK you can access the school directory, make online payments for (future) PTO events and sign up for available volunteer opportunities. Most importantly, MTK allows the PTO to communicate with you. Please log into MTK through this link: https://gaepto.membershiptoolkit.com/ and go through the prompts to update your information, including your email and your child's teacher. If you are new to Glen Acres, please create a new account. You can find more information on MTK on our website: https://gaepto.weebly.com/membership-toolkit-mtk.html. Please email gaepto@gmail.com with any questions! The first PTO meeting will be this Thursday at 7PM, 9/10, via Zoom. The Zoom link will be posted to Schoology in the calendar section. Go to www.wcasd.net far right side of the Schoology link to login in. You can log in using your child's user name and pass code.
I have attached two new things:
* A flyer about an Upcoming Zoom Meeting with Dr Bernstein, Ph.D on 9/22. Dr. Bernstein is facilitating a meeting about, "How to Support Your Child Emotionally and Academically in Virtual Learning." Please see the flyer for more information if you are interested in attending.
*Photos of some of our teachers' work stations from school. We are looking forward to seeing our students back at school, hopefully soon!
Finally, we are off tomorrow Labor Day.
