Principal's Update
September 9, 2020
Dear Families,
If you've been keeping up with the local news, Santa Clara County was recently downgraded from the Purple- most restrictive- rating, to Red. If we stay in Red for 14 consecutive days, our schools may reopen by (but no sooner than) October 12th.
There remain many moving parts to our current situation, and the path to reopening will require a coordinated effort between our school, the district office, and you- our families. As I learn more details and information, I will relay that information as clearly and timely as I possibly can to you.
Until then, our teachers continue to seek fun and innovative ways to engage our students into the learning and with each other. We're sharing ideas at staff meetings on how to give children the space to share, socialize, and play. We're discussing how to use the different features of Schoology to maximize our time and communication with kids. And we're always trying to reflect on our practice to ensure that lesson delivery fits the personality of our classrooms. It has already been an amazing journey these past four weeks, and your continued trust and support could not be more appreciated. THANK YOU!
