August 3 Update
With the arrival of August, and health and safety protocols changing so rapidly around the country, I am planning daily updates to keep you informed.
-
I have been meeting regularly with teachers. They have been giving me good feedback about the reopening plan, helping us make any necessary changes.
-
I am meeting with the full staff tomorrow and the early childhood teachers later in the week to continue hearing their thoughts and ideas.
-
A survey will go out on Wednesday August 5 to gather parent opinions on the e-learning options. Responses will be due Friday August 7. I realize that is a fast turn-around, but we need to know this information to move forward with plans.
-
I have met with a small parent group to hear the thoughts and feelings of the community and am in daily communication with my Regional Director as we think through next steps in light of the latest directives from the Archdiocese.
The safety of St. Helen's students and the quality of their educational experience is driving every decision I make. Because the situation in the city is so fluid, we may have to adapt the original plan. I will keep you informed through daily emails.
