Week of April 20th – April 24th

A Note From Ms. Sickler

We continue with our distance learning plan this week.  If your child has not yet engaged with any of the learning our teachers have developed and posted to SeeSaw and emailed to families now is the time to get started. While our buildings may be closed, our learning continues to grow. The Governor’s order regarding the closure of schools requires that new learning opportunities and student engagement in these new opportunities continue to take place.  That being said, we realize every family is in a different space and has different needs.  I have been so very grateful to the amazing Harvest teachers for creating positive remote learning environments for their students.  With that, we are especially grateful to parents and families.  We know that balancing work, family, and school isn’t easy for anyone.   Please let us know how your family is doing by checking in: HARVEST FAMILY CHECK-IN FORM.

If there is anything we can do to support your family in any way, please let us know – you can email your classroom teacher or me at sicklere@salineschools.org

Love and virtual hugs,

Ms. Sicker
