I have prayed that you and your family had a safe and healthy Easter Recess. We know it been stressful these few month. However, we pray to God for this pandemic to go away.
I will also like to inform you that I will be contacting parents this week. If you have any questions I will be happy to answer them. Also, I will let you know if you could pick up your child's package at the school office. These are activities will be for your child to work at home. The addition booklet will be use for homework.
I would like to inform the parents that I have been making phone call again to find out how the family is doing, and to help you with your concerns about your child's work. I'm going to have a Zoom conference for Wednesday, April 22, and Friday, April 24th at 11:30 AM. I have called a group of parents for tomorrow's conference, then I will call the second group for Friday, April 24th. the ID# is 764-301-9104.
