From the Desk of our School Social Worker
"Metro by T-Mobile is committed to bridging the digital divide for students in kindergarten through 12th grade across the country, through their Project 10Million initiative. This year, through our partnership with Metro by T-Mobile, and as our National Internet Connectivity sponsor, we are supporting teachers and their classroom by sharing Project 10Million with them. Through the program, qualifying students receive FREE mobile hotspots that provide FREE internet access in the classroom and at home for FIVE years.
The Digital Divide, defined as the gap that exists between those who have reliable internet access and devices and those with very limited access or none at all, impacts 1 in 4 students across the country. This equates to between 15 to 16 million students K-12 who aren’t able to access class during days of e-learning or for homework.
Through Metro by T-Mobile’s Project 10Million, students kindergarten through 12th grade can receive access through the click of a button—it’s that easy—and important."
From Our Volunteer Services Coordinator
Happy February!
The "cold" of January is behind us, and a fun Friendship Dance is ahead! We're also looking ahead to Parent Teacher Conferences this month (including a book fair) and nearing the end of the second trimester. If you've got space in your schedule, please consider helping at Adams!
Winter Book Fair
We will be having a book fair during Winter Conferences (2/20 & 2/22). Encourage our readers by helping out! As a bonus: You will receive one FREE item for every two hours you volunteer. Sign up here. [timeframe: 1-4 hrs]
Die Cutting Shapes in the Workroom
Adams students will be involved in a collaborative bulletin board, similar to our current "Winter Activities We Can Do Together" board. We could use your help in the workroom to die cut all the shapes needed. Contact Lisa if you're interested! [timeframe: 1-4 hours, doesn't have to be all at once or by one person]
From our Parent Educator
February's focus is using positive affirmations.
