One of our goals is to better communicate and streamline the communication. With so many new faces and names, it can be challenging to stay on top of things if we are used to a certain way of communicating. Effective communication helps us build trust, which is what we need in our grade levels, as many of our teachers will see your children again next year and potentially the years after that.

Reducing Screen Time at School and Home

 

As the pandemic hit in 2019, schools were forced to quickly modify how teaching and instruction were delivered to students. Students quickly became adept at using technology as the primary tool to receive instruction, access information and complete their schoolwork. To be honest, as a world, we became dependent on it. But now that we are back in school and face-to-face, it’s time to put down those screens!
