Leasure Bears Den Parent Newsletter

Dear Leasure Families,

Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful and restful winter break. We’re excited to welcome our students back for the second half of the school year and look forward to the learning and growth ahead!

As we return on January 6, 2025, I want to make you aware of the potential for inclement weather, with a forecast predicting snow beginning tonight. Should weather conditions require a shift to virtual learning instead of a school closure, we will communicate this decision promptly.

If a virtual schedule is implemented, we kindly ask that students log into Schoology, where they will find their Zoom links and the schedule for the virtual learning day. To ensure a smooth learning experience, please verify that your child can access their Schoology account. Kindergarten students will log in using their iPads, while students in grades 1-5 will use their Chromebooks.
