Swansboro Elementary
March 17, 2020
Good evening Pirates! Tomorrow is the big day when we begin our online learning adventure. Please keep in mind that this is a new learning experience for us all, but I am confident that if we are patient and work together, we can make this a positive learning experience! We do understand that this is not the same as being in the classroom each day; however, we are working to make sure that assignments are similar to what students would experience while here at school. The expectation is for students to try their best to complete the assignments. These assignments are not optional and may be factored into a student's grade. If your child is experiencing frustrations, please reach out to your teachers for additional support. Assignments do not need to be printed and completed on the worksheet. Students may record their answers on notebook paper if needed. We appreciate your support as we navigate this unknown territory together. All parents are also encouraged to check out our newsletter. The link is emailed out with each all call. In the newsletter you will find a link to our Enrichment class assignments as well as resources for our students that receive speech services. You can also find on our newsletter a link to request a field trip refund check. Thank you again for being flexible as we try to make the best of this situation. Be safe and email me (page.highsmith@onslow.k12.nc.us) if you need any assistance. We've got this Pirates!
