Every child deserves a champion:
an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists they become the best they can possibly be. Rita Pierson, Educator Learning at HomeIt is important for your child to continue learning during this extended time away from the classroom. If your child was able to be in school on Friday they should have brought home some ideas for ways to keep learning at home as well as any passwords needed for websites we use. I know some families are limited in the technology they have available for their kids to use. Just do what you can. I will be checking my school email a few times a day during the weekdays if you have any questions.
