A Message from Nurse Aimee
I hope everyone is staying healthy and washing their hands. If I can help you in anyway or if you have questions, please don’t hesitate to e-mail me at aimee.lind@boone.kyschools.us.
Here are some links with some good information. The youtube video is a good one and answers a lot of questions that our kids might be asking. Try staying off social media, it is overwhelming and not always the most up to date and accurate information.

From Mrs. Taylor in the Library
I hope this finds all of our incredibly, awesome, Mustangs safe and sound! I really miss seeing your smiling faces when you come to the library. I miss searching for books with you in the mornings and choosing “just right books” together too. Although I miss being at school and seeing the students and teachers, I’m so grateful that I have a super-cool school to return to in the near future. I’ve updated my Google Classroom and I hope that each and every one of you will visit it and join. I have included reading lists (with more to come) for all ages as well as some fun-filled activities and goals that you can do. Please don’t hesitate to contact me. And, remember, KEEP ON READING!! GC code for the “NTI-EES Mustang Library” is 73dqg6h
Need something to read? Try e-books! Tumble Books can be processed from our school website. The link is listed under the “Library Media Center” tab. It includes activities, quizzes, and videos. If you are unable to access it, email Mrs. Taylor at Belinda.taylor@boone.kyschools.us. You can also take AR quizzes when you come back to school.

Non-Traditional Instructional Plans for Each Grade Level
From Your Special Areas Team
As we all learn from our first week of NTI, special areas will be making some changes and improvements to make it easier for parents and students to access our lessons for your children.
You can easily find special areas lessons by going to Google Classrooms and choosing the Special Areas classroom available for your child. (World language has a separate Google Classroom for classes in grades 2-5 called "Nihongo.") Once there, click the "Classwork" tab at the top of the page. You will find the lessons clearly marked under the special area heading. We have worked together to make the Google Classroom experience more uniform and simpler to understand. Thank you for your patience as we all learn this new technology!
The goal of the special areas team during these NTI days is to provide your student with experiences that enrich each student's learning and cultivate the development of the whole child, while still staying true to each content's standards.
Each week, please encourage your child to try to complete lessons from special areas. Although all content areas are important, we do not want students and parents to feel stressed by specials lesson as we all adapt to this new normal for learning. Students are free to complete them on their own time table, as they can. Special areas can help provide something different for your child to learn and experience that may be a welcome break from their core content area work. Thank you!
