Letter from Principal Walton
Dear Parents and Legal Guardians,
Thank you for all your hard work and devotion in supporting your child with their education. I would like to share with you some learning resources from your learning community. It is important to stay connected to school and our RBK learning community so we can assist you and your child in their learning environment moving forward. Two-way communication with your child and their community can be essential. Your child’s Google Classrooms include important updates and information. Please check them daily! In addition,check your child’s email and yours too for communication. You may seek to establish lines of communication with your child’s teachers or education provider to ask questions and exchange information through phone, email, text messaging or other means.
Over the course of the last two years we have focused on digital citizenship. Please talk with your child about how to be a responsible digital citizen. Remind your child that remote communities are an extension of their classrooms and the same basic expectations apply, such as treating others with respect and kindness. Let your child know that they should tell you, their teacher, or a family member if they or a classmate are being mistreated or are worried about any troubling content, encounters, or activities. Please remember we need parent and guardian cooperation with digital citizenship too. Be a model for your child. As always, if you have a question or concern please contact me directly.
Welcome Miss Francis!
