It’s crazy to think that a year ago, we were experiencing our last “normal” weekend/time with our students before shifting to “remote learning” for what we thought would be two-weeks. Our world was completely changed overnight. We are all experiencing the pandemic in different ways (some are experiencing it in a much bigger, more urgent way than others), and yet we are all carrying pain through this, and we are all changed because of it.
We see how hard you are trying to connect and reach your students, despite the challenges this year has brought educators. We see the countless hours you’ve dedicated, the worrying about meeting the needs of all of your students and trying to connect and reach out to others so you can share ideas. We see that you’re constantly coming together as teams to brainstorm yet another idea for kids where it may not be working — We are SO PROUD OF YOU!
While this last calendar year has been challenging, this year has not been lost. While students may not have learned as much as they normally would (if attending physically in school, normal hours/days), they have learned OTHER THINGS.
Thank you for your continued resilience and flexibility as we transition towards normalcy for our students.

It’s Seuss Week! While it looks different this year, we’re still going to make it amazing for our students! Thanks to Amanda for putting together our spirit week line-up and sharing Instagram images we can all post & share via REMIND with parents! Stay tuned for a link to a site where families can have some Dr. Seuss fun at home! If you’re still interested in signing up to read/record a book, it’s not too late! But hurry! The more books our Kubbies can read and listen to at home, the better!

Think of how much your students miss you when they haven’t seen you over a long 3-day weekend? Or after a week-long break?
For some of our Kubbies, they haven’t step foot in our beautiful school, or seen their beloved teachers in over 300 days! Let’s do everything we can to make tomorrow, and every day we we have, as a chance to welcome our Kubbies, show them how loved and missed they are, and express our excitement to have them back in the building for face-to-face learning!
Let’s do this! Let’s remember our WHY and make hybrid learning successful for everyone!
We can do this!
Know that Donna and I are here to support you! We are a text, phone call or email away. Thanks in advance to EVERYONE for helping make hybrid successful and smooth! We truly appreciate your willingness to lend a helping hand!!!!
