Information for Menger Families
Dear Parents,
We will be monitoring the Coronavirus situation carefully and following all guidelines set by our District and and State Health Department. The purpose of this newsletter is to share facts and information.
For important updates, we will notify you in the following ways:
School Messenger Email
Menger Facebook Page
For daily announcements from the principal, we will begin using YouTube videos next week. Links will be shared and our hope is to have all video links uploaded to our school webpage next week. Links to the videos will also be posted on our Facebook page.
Please continue to check messages from teachers through your usual communication per classroom (Dojo, Tag, Remind, etc.) Teachers are trying to reach out to you to share updates and info. If you have not been in touch with your child's teacher, please email them as soon as possible so we can update our contact information and reach out to you.
All of us are checking school email daily. Please don't hesitate to be in touch with questions or concerns.
Distance Learning
Facts about Coronavirus
Free Educational Websites for Home
Sometimes screen time is a necessity if we have children at home and work we need to do. Here are three apps that make screen time a learning time:
- BrainPop: Online learning across subject areas for children in kindergarten through middle school and ELL learning for all age groups. Free.
- Khan Academy: Online learning in math, science, and literacy for all age groups. Standards-aligned. Free.
- Scholastic Learn at Home: Interactive learning journeys for all ages.
Several other links have been shared on our Menger Facebook page.
Stay Well
Please stay safe and well and know that we are in this together.
