MESSAGE FROM DR. CHURCH
Dear Totem Falls Parents,
Our second week of students having no masks continues to go very well. This week there have been some classroom changes as well. I have been in classes that have returned to having students in small groups, snack time is happening in some classes, and we have seen many more volunteers around school. With these changes students continue to be enjoying school and the return to more normality. For our younger students, they are learning what it means to have normal classroom structures and routines!
Next week is conference week and we look forward to seeing you. We want to thank our PTO for providing dinner on Wednesday night for staff. We really appreciate it!
Finally, with the weather getting nicer, I want to remind you that we can not have students go to the playground after dismissal without someone to supervise them. If someone was injured, there would be no one there to help. Thanks for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Craig
