Parents,

Thank you for your help and support with the first week of At Home Learning! You are extremely important and the key element in supporting your child’s learning from home.

I hope you and your family are safe enjoying family time. I have been social distancing. The hardest is to not hug my parents. They are both in their 80’s, active, and healthy.

Hug your kids for me! I miss their smiling faces, jokes and stories:)

Happy Friday

Parents,

Please monitor your child’s learning. They should be following the fourth grade At Home Learning calendar. If they fall behind, it will be difficult for them to catch-up. From all the experts, it’s best to form a routine as close to the regular school day as possible.

Thank you for all the help and support you are providing your child. Together, we make a great team!
