SLP Online 7/8 Families,
This week, around SLP schools and the country, we are celebrating American Education Week. Our teachers and staff are amazing and we want to make sure they know how much they mean to us. They have done a tremendous job navigating yet another school year impacted by COVID-19 and they make me really proud to be their colleague.
This week, the online staff will gather briefly to share a moment together with coffee and treats. If you have a chance to share any appreciation you and your family may have, I know it goes a long way. A little note or email from students and/or parents is appreciated any time of the year!
I’m sure you’ve seen or read about the labor shortage happening across industries. While we aren’t seeing the same impacts as other districts, we are experiencing a shortage of substitute teachers in our schools. If you are interested in supporting students and our schools by becoming a sub, we’d welcome you! You just need a college degree, and we help with the rest. Find out more about becoming a substitute. If you would like to speak with me directly about being a substitute, please call me at 763-600-5316.
We’re a week away from our Thanksgiving break. There is no school Wednesday, November 24 through Friday, November 26. On Monday, November 29, we’ll return for the last week of the trimester. Also, please keep in mind, if you are planning on having your child move to in-person learning for Tri 2, you need to contact me by Friday, November 19.
I hope you’re enjoying our first snowfall of the year and, as always, please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
