You’ll have the chance to speak directly with division leaders, ask questions, share ideas, and enjoy friendly, open conversation about our schools. We look forward to connecting with our community there!
As we move through December, we want to bring to your attention that we have already used a significant amount of our "banked" instructional hours due to recent school closures.
In an effort to be proactive and prepared for any additional loss of time, especially with more challenging weather forecasted in the coming days, we are sending home an At-Home Learning Packet with your child today.
Please note the following instructions regarding this packet:
Hold the Packet: This packet is only to be used when officially communicated by the school division. Please have your child store it in a safe, accessible place at home.
Packet Contents: The packet contains work that can cover up to two (2) days of instruction per subject area. Typically, this is one assignment per class.
When to Use: The work in this packet will be officially used when you receive a specific notification call from the division stating "At-Home Learning" is in effect. Until that call, please do not have your child begin the work.
We appreciate your cooperation as we take steps to ensure continuity of learning for all our students. Preparing now will help us minimize disruption should we face further weather-related closures.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership!
~Dr. Martin
