Aqsa School Staff In-Service
Monday August 17 th - Friday August 21st
All Aqsa Staff In-Service Days- Next Week 9am-4pm
As you all are aware, due to COVID-19, there have already been some changes to the learning formats for this schoolyear. These include, offering two options to students and families: OPTION 1: On-site in-person learning and OPTION 2: at home LIVE STREAMING learning.
During our in-service days we will receive training in multiple technological tools and apps. We will also thoroughly review the new safety guidelines. Please bring a fully-charged device with you for the training.
Although we have had to reduce the number of items in the classrooms, we still want students to feel a sense of excitement and warmth in their classrooms. In some grades, students will spend their entire day in the same classroom, so we want that classroom to exude happiness and color. We will decorate every bulletin board in the school. Please think about your subject area and ideas you may have to decorate your departmental areas. The school does have colored paper and basic supplies. If you want something extra special, consider visiting teacher supply stores. All staff will be reimbursed $50 towards school related expenses.
Due to the new guidelines, sadly, we cannot provide meals as we have done previously. Each day there will be coffee, tea, water bottles and prepackaged granola bars and individually packages snacks. However, we encourage all staff to bring meals with you for your lunch breaks.
Finally, I ask that you bring YOURSELF- fully, completely, open and ready to embrace all that we have in store. Inshallah, it will be a successful and positive year ahead!
With Optimism and Excitement for a Year of New Adventures and Learning,
Ms. Tammie Ismail
