Warrior Update #4
COVID-19 4/3/2020
Warriors Staff Sending Fun Positive Vibes...
Greetings,
We are remaining positive and united as we work through this together. For our Friday morning staff meeting today, since there will be no official Spring Break, we brought Spring Break to our meeting. Staff dressed up in Hawaiian shirts or beach attire from sunglasses to hats. Superintendent Gumina shared information regarding his conversations with local superintendents and Monroe County Commissioner of Public Health, Dr. Mendoza.
One thing is evident: WE ALL MISS OUR STUDENTS!!
FYI: Just so we are on the same page, over the past few weeks, all students have received multiple emails, Remind texts, or notifications via Google Classroom from each of their teachers regarding enrichment, review, or other learning opportunities. Your student should be responding and/or engaging in the activities.
You may need to check their school email or classrooms. Thanks...#weareinthistogether.
Current timeline for the next few weeks:
4/6 - 4/10 = Continue to stay engaged with school and family
4/13 - 4/15(?) = Communication/Implementation of Phase II (new learning forthcoming)
Thank you for all the questions and emails, please keep them coming.
Take care, keep washing hands and practicing social distancing,
#weareallinthistogether

I wanted to let you know, that you are thought of daily. All plans are still a go for you in June. This may change, but understand that your special moments (of which you create by who you are surrounded by) are important to all of us. Stay connected and engaged.

I wanted to let you know, that you are thought of daily. All plans are still on for your May 15th Prom and other activities. However please begin to think that this may change. We have begun to consider other options. Nothing has been decided either way. Stay connected and engaged.

AP EXAM UPDATE (repeat of update from earlier this week)
Audible
As all of us around the world confront this difficult new period, we recognize the importance—and the challenge—of staying relaxed and entertained, especially for kids at home who are missing the stimulation of the classroom. From the beginning, Audible has served as an antidote to loneliness and even isolation, as a way to hear words that inspire and transport and for many – words that teach and entertain in deeply intimate ways.
With all of us experiencing varying degrees of social distancing and school closures, we have created something that we hope makes our customers’ lives a little easier. At stories.audible.com, you will find hundreds of our titles available completely free. The collection has been handpicked by our editors and is a mix of stories to entertain, engage, and inform young people, ages 0–18.
These stories offer a screen-free option that we hope may help break up the day for families with students home from school.
There are selections for our listeners in English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese and Italian.
To access the free titles, just visit stories.audible.com from any web browser.
The experience is completely free – no log-ins, credit cards, or passwords required. Just click, stream and listen.
We wish you and your loved ones good health, and we hope that listening to a good story will offer some respite during these unsettling times.
All of us at Audible
