Yealey Families,
It's been a fun week here at school and I'm looking forward to next week being just as fun. Everyone is looking forward to something whether it be Christmas, a long break, a trip, or visiting family/friends. The excitement can be felt in the building and is such a welcome change from the December we experienced here last year.
I believe you have received communication from district office about plans to call Home Instruction Days in lieu of snow days this year. In anticipation of days like this being called in January and February, we will begin sending home Chromebooks with students in 2nd - 5th grades every night starting 12/17. So that we have chargers at school and at home, we will be sending home one charger per family and these will come home with the oldest child in each family. It would probably be best to leave Chromebooks in the backpacks unless they are being used for school assignments. Thank you for your help with this. Kindergarten and 1st grade students will have a packet in their backpack each night starting on 12/17. The packet should not be completed or worked on until there is a Home Instruction Day called by the district. Be sure it gets back into the backpack after you have worked on it so that the teacher can review the work completed and give your child credit for attendance on these days. And, the best part of Home Instruction Days is that they are not added to the end of the school year. So, unless an actual snow day is called, the last day of school should remain as it was originally planned.
We have three pairs of glasses that have been in lost and found. Do you recognize these?
This will be the last blog entry for this year. I hope everyone has a great winter break (12/18/21 - 1/2/22) and that you are able to spend time sharpening the saw with the people you are closest too. I am looking forward to time with family and friends.
See you next week and then not again until January 3rd!
Mrs. Turner
