Dear colleagues,
It may sound strange but the last month of the year is about to start on Tuesday. We have three weeks of learning left before the winter break. Let’s hope we can manage the spreading of the virus so that we can keep the school open and start our three weeks of holiday unaffected.
On Tuesday morning we have the final morning faculty meeting of 2020. On the agenda, we have the holiday assembly that will take place on the last day of school, Parent Coffee content and messages, Report Card writing updates and reminders, and some refreshments helping us to celebrate the incredibly smooth first semester of the school year.
On Wednesday we have a couple brief items before using the rest of the time for report card writing.
First, we will review the Distance Learning expectations from last spring, harvesting collectively ideas for improving the model and how to make the transition from in-class learning to distance learning as efficiently and smoothly as possible. Secondly, we will spend 10 minutes answering Student Support Survey questions, and finally, use the rest of the time for Report Card writing.
Let’s enjoy Extended Learning #7 on Monday through the excitement and enthusiasm of our wonderful students.
Have a great week!
Riana, Trevor, and Heikki
