DRAGON DELIVERY October 4, 2020
From Principal Christy Waddell
BLENDED LEARNING: Beginning Monday October 5th, the district is moving to a blended learning schedule. Students across all grades, K-12 will attend school Monday through Thursday according to their regular schedules. There will be no early-out or late start days. Friday will be a planning, collaboration and student-consultation day for teachers and a day of independent study for students. More information will be coming on this as we spend the next week preparing.
COVID: We have had a new case this last week and a few have had to quarantine. I am also waiting to hear from two others. Please remember to keep your kids home if they are ill. That seems to be helping us a lot. If your student is on quarantine please email the teacher and he/she can let you know how to keep your child up to date with what is going on in class.
SUBSTITUTES: Thank you to all of you who told Marian you would be an Emergency Substitute for us! It is appreciated.
PTA INFORMATION: No-Fuss Fundraiser Update
Box Top Collection: This will be our last collection of physical box tops. Please clip them and send them with your student byThursday, 10/08.
Please continue to scan your receipts using the Box Tops for Education app.
