Spring Break and Updates

Hello, 4th Graders and families! 
 
I just wanted to make a couple of updates, so that we can all be prepared as much as we can be after Spring Break. 
 
  • If you haven't, please fill out the survey on the front page of our school website. It will help the school know more information to ensure that we are prepared and can be as successful as we can be as we begin the remote live instruction on Wednesday 4/8. 
  • We will be having a Parent/Teacher zoom session on Tuesday 4/7 to go over the new online layout and have a "back to school" session
  • Spring Break will be 3/30-4/3
 
Once I get more information, I will definitely be uploading it on here (like what time we will have the "back to school" session on 4/7). 
 
Please be safe and I hope you guys try to have as much fun as you can during this break! :) 
 
Sincerely, 
Ms.Aliah
