HAPPY NEW YEAR ARCOLA FAMILIES!
We begin a new year!
As we look forward to this week, all eyes will be on the School Board Meeting on Tuesday night. During this meeting the school board plans to vote on how the return to hybrid learning will start again. Until we know more, all students will continue to be in Distance Learning. Mondays will be "asynchronous" (all students will need to log into their morning meeting at 8:00 AM otherwise they will be marked absent for the day.) Tuesday- Friday will be "synchronous learning" with students participating in their classes with their teachers and classmates.
If you have not yet logged into ParentVue or have had trouble doing so in the past, there will be a very helpful virtual tutorial on January 13th. I encourage everyone to be a part of it. Parentvue is your most valuable tool when accessing your child's education. You can see their grades, track their progress, check their bus and teacher information. You can update emergency contact information and much more. In this virtual world, this is your door into your child's education!
We have had to make a few changes to teacher assignments as we prepare for second semester. Families affected by these changes were notified on December 21st. Please note, second semester begins JANUARY 21st. It's important that all our families note this information.
Looking forward in your calendar, please note that NEXT WEEKEND is a particularly long weekend. Monday, January 18th is our national remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Tuesday January 19th is a teacher work day (we're working on your report cards!) and Wednesday, January 20th schools will be closed for Inauguration Day. There is no school, there are no classes on these three days.
Please don't forget to upload your winter break pictures to include them in our yearbook this year. Our yearbook this year will be the most personal yet, and what a year to remember! Details are below.
Stay safe and healthy everyone!
