MESSAGE FROM MRS. MARTIN, YOUR PRINCIPAL
Thank you to the many families that continue to enroll for the 2020-2021 school year. We are very excited to welcome our students back on Aug. 27 and 28 for Assessment Days. Please check your email for your appointment time. If you are unsure of your appointment time, please contact lisa_jacobs@engschools.net or jennifer_johnson@engschools.net.
A few things will take place at this year's assessment days. Please see an outline below.
Arrival
All students will arrive through our main entrance. Families will remain outside and students can enter the building once they have completed their wellness screen. This will include temperature checks and screening questions about their health. Parents and family members will need to remain outside or in their vehicle. All appointments will last 1hour and 15 minutes.
Masks
All students and family members must wear a mask at all times while on school property.
Classroom and Devices
While meeting their teacher, students will see their classroom, complete a reading assessment, and log into their school device (K/1-iPad and 2-6-Chromebook). Students will learn about device care, expectations, and visit their "virtual" classroom, (K/1-Seesaw and 2-6-Google Classroom). Students will be bring home their device and charger and are expected to bring it to school each day!
Tours/Procedures
Students will tour the building with a staff member to better understand our new arrival, dismissal, breakfast, lunch, and social distancing procedures.
Pictures
All students will have their pictures taken and if you would like to purchase school pictures, see the link below.
Supplies
This year, students will be expected to bring their school device, charger, and school supplies back and forth to school each day. Teachers will be teaching all students a system of organization and providing a Bishop Binder to all 3-6 graders and a Bishop Bucket for all K-2 students to stay organized! More to come about this soon!
Back to School Night
Mark your calendars...we will be holding 2 back to school nights, Aug. 27 and Aug 28. One in English and one in Spanish. We will be sending out a schedule to families early next week along with a Zoom link. We hope ALL families will join us to meet your teacher and learn more about how this school year will be organized. All staff will also be available that night for "office hours" via Zoom.
Take care and always reach out with any questions or concerns.
Shanna Martin
