Silver Lake Intermediate Nov. 20, 2020
SLI Families:
Families should have received communication yesterday regarding our transition from full face to face model to the purple/gold hybrid model. From November 30 until December 18, our SLI students will be coming to school every other day. In the middle of December we will review our data to make a decision regarding after the winter break. I know all of these changes are hard on family schedules during these stressful times. OASD is thankful for the wonderful, flexible families we have.
Please help our staff enforce mask wearing with your child at school. Mask wearing is important to keeping all of us safe, reduce the spread of germs, and keep our schools open for a longer period of time.
Just an FYI there will not be a Smore newsletter next week.
Enjoy your Thanksgiving and be well!

The Character Strong curriculum is built around the “Eight Essential” character traits and social emotional skills that have been proven to help us be productive, empathetic, successful people. We will be working together to build a kinder school culture and, ultimately, a kinder world. We are so excited to dive into this resource with our students and staff, and with families as well!
