School News Oct 23

Hi All,

School Reorganization
As you know parents/caregivers had the option of choosing for their child(ren) to be an inschool learner or a remote learner. Numerous parent/caregivers chose remote learning.  As a result, our school population will be 322 students beginning on Tuesday November 3, 2020.  We have gone from 19 classrooms to 15 classrooms. Therefore, our school will be reorganizing due to lower in-school enrollment .  Here are the the Teachers who are surplused, new reorganization, and classes that will be collapsed.

Teachers Surplused:

• Mr. Root (surplused four days, therefore, working at our school for one day only)

Students from these classrooms will be placed into the new reorganization beginning on Tuesday November 3, 2020.  We are minimizing student movement as much as possible.  Some students will be moved to accommodate their learning styles and their socio emotional health.   All students being moved will get a letter sent home indicating their new class and Teacher with their Progress Report on Thursday October 29, 2020.  Over the weekend, please talk to your children about adapting to changes, their feelings, and the opportunity to make new friendships.
