Principal Lewis' Sunday Update for the week of 3/23/20
Well, it looks like we will be connecting virtually for the next 5 weeks, or at least until May 5th. If you have not already had your kiddo log-on to Clever and then PowerSchool, now is the time. There will be links in the SMORE eBlast as well for reminders of how to log-in.
This is our last week before Spring Break, and if you are anything like me, you are starting to figure out projects around the house that you’ve been wanting to get to. I too will be working from home, until May 5th, but will still keep connected through the SME-Mrs. Lewis’ Announcements class on PowerSchool. This week you will see the added video tutorial from Mrs. Sibbrel, and her daughter Ashley on the School Dance, as well as the Pledge of Allegiance done by the Prado Family.
If you did not get a chance to pick up a chromebook during this last week, please email me at lewis.lindsay@pusd.us so I can make arrangements to get you one. Just a reminder, that any assigned teacher work or instruction takes priority over the district’s 2-week packet of work. There were a few extra hard copies of the packets that I left outside room 111 in the front of the school, if you would still like to pick one up. Since so much of your kiddo’s learning will be digital now, please make sure you have a routine of monitoring apps and usage. After Spring Break, your kiddo’s teacher will be pushing out specific instructions for a schedule of lessons and timing of when students will be using particular apps. All of this information will be through PowerSchool so if you are having trouble connecting, please email your kiddo’s teacher.
Pre-packed breakfasts & lunches for students are confirmed at the following locations:
