SBS Weekly Update
September 27th, 2020
Principal's Notes
I think we finally figured out the tech issues we have been having...
We have been able to make significant strides this past week updating/upgrading our internet. The first week at full digital capacity helped us determine areas off weakness, and we've been addressing them. Most significantly has been the switch to a hard wired connection for our teacher devices. We are in the process of hardwiring the entire top floor of the school. It is our hope that the new cameras arrive this week, and we anticipate they will help with image and sound issues. Thank you for your continued support and patience.
Lifetouch will be here on Tuesday and Thursday taking individual pictures. We understand that this may align with your child's gym day, but please dress accordingly for pictures. The gym teacher is aware he may need to adjust instruction.
**If your child is fully digital and you would like to have their school picture taken, please plan on coming in between 8:15 and 8:45 on Thursday.
Students in Grades 2 - 8 will begin MAP testing this week. We will be attempting to complete it digitally from home on Wednesday for Grades 3 - 8, and working with our Second graders in the school building. Students will be tested only in Math and Reading this school year. We will not be conducting MAP testing for students in Kindergarten or Grade 1 this term.
I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
All my best,
Matthew Collins
