Mary Hopkins News – May 24

Good Evening,

We hope everyone had an enjoyable long weekend.  As we move into the last week of May and warmer weather, continue to correspond with our school staff if your family is having difficulty maintaining attention and stamina during remote learning.  A typical school day at Mary Hopkins includes plenty of movement and transitions in activities.  As the remote structure can be different, do not hesitate to inform your child’s teacher if a movement break is needed.

May 26 – School Council – 6:30 pm via MS Teams – with guests Superintendent Sue Dunlop and Trustee Penny Deathe
