Dear Parents, 

I hope and pray you are all staying safe and healthy during this challenging time.  I just wanted to update and remind you of a few items pertaining to our new remote learning schedule.

First of all, I am so proud of the 7th graders.  More than a majority of them have adjusted to our new way of learning and are keeping up with all of their assignments. I noticed that most are up and signed on by 8:0o. I firmly believe this is the best way to go.  I encouraged them from the beginning to create a schedule for themselves as if they were in school. I will continue to encourage it. They will benefit from the routine, it will keep life somewhat “normal” for them. I am online from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm. They know that and are reaching out to me when they need help or simply have a question. The same goes for you as well.  If you need to get in touch with me, please do not hesitate. I would also appreciate it if for any reason your child cannot do the work that you reach out to me or to Mrs. Olivera and let us know. My email is at the bottom of this letter. 

I ask that you continue to monitor their work. I will continue to post the work on Google Classroom daily.  I will also post it on the school website so you can see what they are supposed to be doing. All of the Easter break assignments and all assignments going forward will be counted toward the 4th quarter. The 3rd quarter report cards will be released at the end of the month. I am sure Mrs. Olivera will send an IRIS Alert when they are available online.  

Again, I hope and pray you are all safe and healthy and I thank you for your support. 

Love, 
Mrs. Mulvey
