Dear Raleigh Hills Community,
Welcome to the new school year! Our teachers and staff can't wait to welcome you to learning with us online starting Monday. We are ready to take on this adventure with you. We so appreciate your willingness to engage with us in this whole new way. One of the lessons we've learned as we're preparing is to be patient with yourself. This is a whole new way of doing school and you need give yourself and your students grace if it doesn't go smoothly at first. We will all get there. Be in contact with us if you need assistance.
You should have received access to your student's Zoom information and schedule from your teachers. Following this will get you started right on Monday morning. Each year, teachers begin the year setting up their expectations and building community. We always start with this. We call it going slow to go fast. In other words, we create a great learning community and teach kids how to access all of the things they will need to do their best learning. This often takes several weeks. Once students have these skills, we begin to ramp up the academics. We will take extra care with your students this year to make sure they're set up for success!
Again, welcome! We look forward to getting this year underway in partnership with you!
With anticipation,
Jennifer
