Good Morning Howard Families,
We hope that you and your loved ones enjoyed some rest and relaxation during the holiday break. I hope that you are all staying safe and healthy. From my zoom-in observations, it is evident that our students are excited to get back into the groove of things with online learning-they have really become pros with this new way of learning! Kudos to the students, teachers, and of course all of the parents!
Some resources and reminders:
NWEA and DRA testing windows began this week and will continue for the remainder of the month, please help your child prepare by ensuring a healthy routine (sleeping and eating schedule). Please continue to help your child establish a quiet working spot at home. Your support is appreciated!
“FYI, the Communications Department has created an Online Etiquette tipsheet for parents dealing with online learning, particularly their interactions with teachers. The tip sheet is also posted on our First Bell site.”
No School on January 18th, MLK Day!
Half days on January 22nd and January 25th
Hope you have a great rest of the week!
Mirvat Sabbagh
