Weekly Warrior Newsletter
Week of September 28 - October 2, 2020 Volume 8
Announcements from Principal Rios
Greetings Eagle Warriors Familia,
Students and parents are encouraged to learn more about our teachers at this year's Virtual Back to School Night scheduled for:
Date: Thursday, October 1, 2020
Time: 5pm (teacher Welcome videos will be available)
Location: SJLCPA.org
This year students and parents will be referred to our school website at SJLCPA.org to hear directly from your child’s teachers. We understand that many parents have conflicting schedules that may prevent parents from attending a Live Google Meet/ Zoom Back to School Night. Therefore, we have decided to provide parents and students with video recordings of their courses along with the teacher's contact information.
Parents, please log onto our school website and click on the name of your student's teacher. A welcome video from your teacher explaining course expectations along with their contact information will be provided.
Padres:
Hola Familias de LCPA, ¡Necesitamos su opinion! Por favor complete las encuestas para ayudarnos a planear la reapertura de las escuelas y para guiar mejor nuestros esfuerzos de distribución de alimentos en el futuro.
¡Gracias!
Tania Martinez,
Community Outreach Liaison
