DEAR PARENTS & GUARDIANS,
Because you are your child’s greatest advocate and teacher, we ask that you continue to guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:
Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience- this includes remotely-scheduled (online) classes
Completes all homework assignments/projects given by his/her teachers and accesses his/her/their School Email and other necessary platforms Daily (Computer access is needed; please let us know if your access to a computer/laptop changes)
Reads daily to improve literacy skills and to develop/support a love for reading
Shares (school) experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school-life
