Good Morning First Grade Families,

We’ve certainly all had a lot to think about overnight. The closure of schools in the state puts a lot of pressure on families with children too young to stay home alone. If you are concerned about childcare for the coming weeks and you are unable to work from home, you may want to consider teaming up with one or two other parents in our class or in your neighborhood to share childcare responsibilities a few days a week.

It’s important to note that groups of children should stay small and consistent to get the benefit of the school closures. I will not be planning any childcare arrangements but, if you are interested in giving your email to other interested parents, you can email me at roec@dearbornschools.org.
