Kindergarten Update
Dear Parents, April 24,2020
We hope that you enjoyed your Easter with your families. We have returned this week back to our Long Distance Learning and are very happy with the commitment we are seeing from our students as well as parents. Based upon some suggestions that parents made in the Parent Survey, we’ve adjusted the emailing of the weekly schedules. Weekly schedules will now be sent out on Friday evenings in preparation for the week to follow. Our daily schedule remains the same although we will be making some changes to our schedule beginning on May 3rd. We will be adding in some additional Zoom times for learning and connecting with our students. More details will follow in next week’s website and schedule.
Our Super Kid next week will be Kara. Please be ready to share on Tuesday.
The Guesstimation Jar goes to Ashley. Please send 1 or 2 photos of the jar out to the class. Students should be ready with their guesses on Friday.
