Hello! I wanted to reach out to you all and introduce myself. Some of you do not know me, my name is Ms. Kristen Blank and I will be teaching 3rd and 4th grade ASD this year at Nowlin Elementary.
This year is definitely different but I know that it will be just as amazing. As I am sure you are aware, we are starting the school year off virtually. Starting September 21st 2020 we will be holding “learning labs”, this will be in-person learning for our students. We are still working out the details of this however we know that they will be starting the 21st and will be 2.5 hour sessions, 5 days a week. There will be 2 groups, an AM session, and a PM session. Transportation will be provided!
The link to the form that needs to be completed is below. I ask that you complete the form no matter what option you choose, the first question will be if you want them to participate in the learning labs. The form needs to be completed no later than next week Wednesday, September 2nd 2020.

Other Info:
- We are using Schoology as our platform and I will be sending more information regarding this in the near future.
- We will be holding quick orientation meetings this week and will be sending out an email for times/days if you are interested (we will be going over schoology a bit).
- We will also be holding contingency plan meetings which I will be sending out another email for times/days. This one may be virtual!
- Please let me know if you do not have a chromebook and need one from the district to access the virtually learning materials.
If you have any questions/comments/concerns please send me an email at blankk@dearbornschools.org and I will reach out to you asap. Thank you again, I look forward to working with you and your child, I also look forward to an amazing yet untraditional school year!
