Greetings!
The weather sure changed over the last week. Sunny days are here again. While our state needs the water, I do love the sunny days. Watching the sun come up as we are outside helping with drop off is amazing. It is nice that we have such a great view of the mountains on those clear, sunny mornings. Just a quick reminder that we do not have school on Friday (no virtual day) due to Parent Teacher Conferences this week. Enjoy the long weekend.
Thank you for your support and kindness with our Shelter in Place this week. It went as well as one can hope. We practice these drills for just such a moment. I am glad to report that all is well.
Parent Teacher Conferences–-I want to thank you as well for your support with Parent Teacher Conferences. We had a tremendous response. A few parents reached out to share that they have appreciated the online format as it was more convenient to have the meetings online while going about their lives. While I think many of us are tired of this pandemic, there have been some good things we have found. Online PTC might be one of those.
NetSmartz Assembly – We had our 3rd NetSmartz assembly during our 4th period classes Wednesday. Attached is a flyer about understanding the sources with online information from the assembly. It is a good idea to review this information with your family. Keeping our students safe and smart with technology is an important task. Utah NetSmartz – February Monthly Timely Tips for Parents.pdf
