Happy New Year to all. I am sending this out on December 31
st but wanted to date my letter for the beginning of 2021. Remember the following information from the last newsletter.
“We will return January 4
th, 2021 with one more week of virtual instruction. That week is to address safety in making sure students were not exposed to COVID-19 during break. The first week back will also be the last Virtual Friday for our community.”
Thursday, January 7
th at 4:00 PM there is a mandatory Parent Zoom Meeting
to address returning to school face to face on Monday, January 11, 2021. The meeting will be recorded for those unable to attend. A notification process will be created to verify attendance so everyone understands what it will take to return to in person instruction safely.
Education has taken a positive leap forward in providing more means to meeting the needs of our learners. The virtual platform allowed access to more programs to enrich curriculum taught by the teachers. St. Clare of Montefalco Catholic School will continue to integrate in person instruction with virtual enrichment. Directly following that mandatory meeting will be a Parent Workshop conducted by Ms. Cooley addressing interacting virtually in the various programs our school uses. Her workshop will be tailored to your responses to this survey.
Please remember in your prayers our families who have members recovering from COVID-19. Remember if anyone in your family household has COVID-19 or was exposed to COVID-19 and is quarantining you need to contact me,
[email protected]. The school is a means of support for all of our families. We look forward to seeing all the students in zoom next week. We also look forward to the goal of safely returning for face to face instruction January 11, 2021.
