Dear Parents and Students,
We are into our second week of our new normal and things still feel strange and surreal. Ms.Suckoo and I would like to thank you for your constant feedback and for the amazing adjustment your families have made in the space of one week. We are still concerned that some students are not doing their work and we ask that you please email us should you be experiencing any issues – we are a team after all!
A reminder that we will be posting daily on the blog. Between the two of us, we will try to determine how much work is enough on a daily basis. However, we will be doing a survey this week to gain more information from families to help us plot our next few steps.
We hope to be sending out information regarding Microsoft Teams (MT) this week. Once everyone is on MT, we hope to have our first video lesson and see if everyone is able to access the platform.
All the best for the week! We miss you all. Please let us know if you need help with anything.
