Dear Center School Parents,
By now you probably have heard that schools are closing to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. Our students’ learning is a second only to their health and safety. The faculty and staff are doing their best to pull together some key activities to help our students keep their skills sharp while out of school.
Our teachers will send home learning materials/packets today. If you are unable to access the online work sent home, just work through the packet of work that does not require technology with your student. We ask you to do the best you can. Students should return the completed packets as well as any books sent home with them when returning to school. Please have your student reading.
Teachers will be available for questions via email.
If your student was not in attendance today, you may pick up their materials tomorrow in the school offices between 11-3.
This is a critical time in our school year for our students’ development. Many are just making sense of abstract concepts. Please help us prevent any backslide by making sure they continue practicing their skills. We are looking forward to having our students back in the buildings as soon as we are able.
Mrs. Cindy Tolbert, Principal
Alhambra Primary and Grantfork Elementary
The Center School PTO's Jukebox Bingo will be postponed. More details about when it will be rescheduled will be communicated with you in the upcoming weeks.
