Churchill Chatter - Issue 9, September 27, 2020
Dear Churchill Road Families,
As we begin our fourth week together, we want you to know we continue to fine tune our lessons in order to create the most engaging and academic virtual environment for your children! Thank you for the many encouraging words to our teachers over the past few weeks. I am so proud of the commitment of each and every one of our teachers. The one thing they enjoy the most (and miss the most) are the moments between learning when they can smile and laugh together. Our teachers care for your children, and we hope you see this coming through on a daily basis.
Please know we are here for you as you support your children at home. We welcome any questions and suggestions you might have.
Have a wonderful week!
Cherith Pierson
