SY21 TCES Family Issue #6
September 21, 2020
Hello Terrapin Families,
TCES will remain in virtual learning through the end of the 1st Quarter. During last Wednesday's Town Hall and in this follow-up letter, Dr. Smith shared information and data explaining the need to "press pause" and revise our student return date. While this revision is deeply disappointing to many, please take comfort knowing that SMCPS remains committed to using objective data to make the very best decisions possible in the interest of safety.
Our students, teachers, and staff are continuing to learn and develop new skills each and every day. We welcome your questions and feedback on how to improve the virtual learning experience. We are grateful for the kind and positive feedback many of you have taken the opportunity to share with our teachers and me. We remain in this together... committed to kindness, learning, improving, and problem-solving. TCES rocks!
Kind regards,
Lindsay Brenfleck
