Last Week of Distance Learning
We are down to the last week of distance learning and it is shaping up to be a great one! Your awesome Specials Teachers have taken the reins and have some great plans.
- For grades K-2, you will be receiving a direct email, each day, from the teacher on how to proceed.
- For grades 3-8, you should have received an email with a google classroom code and a link to log in. In the google classroom, your student will have specific lessons from different sets of specials teachers each day.
Please make sure your students are actively participating this week. It is a wonderful opportunity for your children to be active and engaged in a multitude of different activities.
Homeroom teachers are holding virtual parent-teacher conferences all week long. If you have not set up your conference time, please reach out to your child's teacher.
Field Day Begins on Tomorrow!
Please download the app here. It should be a blast.
Library Books from The Book Mobile
As teachers are cleaning out their rooms, they are collecting any library books they find among student belongings and the school will return those at the close of the school year.
As you collect your students belongings from the school, please be on the lookout for any books we may have overlooked. If you come across a library book that your child may have checked out from the bookmobile, please return them to the library book drop at the Transylvania County Library.
More Library News
The Transylvania County Library has finalized their June activities (no in-person programs), including the start of our summer reading program. Please see the flier below for more information.

Whole School Zoom Assembly
Look for an email on Friday morning with information about how to log in and participate in our Distance Whole School Assembly.
We still ran into some issues this past week and are working diligently to get the glitches fixed so that all our Bulldogs can participate!
1) Since there will be a lot more students than last time, we will be controlling the Mute/Unmute feature. This allows the speaker to be heard by all.
2) If you are a multi-student household, please be sure your family attends the whole school assembly via one device.
We will recite the pledge and our Code of Behavior. We will then sing the school song and of course, wrap the assembly with a whole school dance party. We hope to see you there!
Log in information will be emailed out every Friday at 8:30 am.
