Parents,

 

Thank you to all of you who have continued to work to support our school and teachers in the time of CoronaEd. Teachers are working hard each day to provide information, videos, activities to be sure students master content for the year. It is vital that your child continues to do the work to minimize any gaps. Now is the time for them to work at their pace to give their best in the work that is provided. All staff are operating in flexibility and grace as work is completed. If your child is having difficulty, please reach out to their teachers as they are here to help. 

 

Please note that the school is your official source of information on school work and expectations of our staff and administration.  No class placements have or ever will be decided or based on CoronaEd work. All decisions will be based on work completed prior to March 13th. However, to be sure your child is ready and prepared for the next year they should continue to be studious and complete work. It will impact them now and in the future. We are resilient! We persevere! We are integral! We continue to do that which is right! We are in this together! Join us as we support our staff and our students through this temporary disruption. We are in this together!!

 

Spring Sports: Our coaching staff will be setting up uniform drop off stations on Wednesday, May 13th from 10-2 and Thursday, May 14th from 2-6.  The stations will be set up in the k-8 carpool line in front of the gym.  A coach will assist you directly from your car.

  • Spring Pictures:  If you ordered Spring Pictures, Strawbridge is processing orders and will fill them once they ramp up production again. This may be a few more weeks. 

  • Yearbook: We will be working on a way to distribute yearbooks and give you more details soon. 

  • LAST CALL FOR COOKIE DOUGH PICK UP:
    We had a few people that did not pick up their CandyMan/Cookie Dough order.  We will have a FINAL pick up on Wednesday, May 13, from 10 am-2 pm.  Please report to the dining hall to pick up.  Failure to pick up orders on Wednesday will result in your items being donated to a local food pantry.  We genuinely thank you for supporting our CandyMan fundraiser and look forward to being able to schedule our Main Event as soon as we feel it is safe to do so.
