Return to School and Food Resources

Dear Families,

Thank you to those of you who joined me on Wednesday evening for our information session on the return to school. To recap, the dates for return are: 

  • Pre-K and Kindergarten: November 16
  • 1st and 2nd Grades: November 30 
  • 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Grades: January 4

Prior to the return to school for each grade level, students will have independent learning days. This will allow teachers to plan and prepare for in-person learning.

  • Pre-K and Kindergarten Independent Learning Days
    • Monday, November 9 and all following Mondays
    • Wednesday, November 12 - Thursday, November 13
  • 1st and 2nd Grades Independent Learning Days
    • Monday, November 26 and all following Mondays
    • Friday, November 20, Monday, November 23 and Tuesday, November 24

The dates for grades 3 - 6 will be shared later. 

If you selected in-person learning for your child, please continue doing the following in preparation for the return to school: 

  • Talk to your children about what school will be like when they return.
  • Ask if they have questions and let them know we are all going to work together to keep everyone safe and healthy.
  • Practice wearing a mask or face covering during the day. 
  • Discuss the importance of social distancing. 
  • Talk about washing hands and covering coughs and sneezes.

Thank you again to those parents who joined us for the informational session on Wednesday, October 28. If you were unable to attend, you can watch the recording here: Graham Road Return to School Parent Info Session.

We will be communicating any class changes and schedules to families prior to their return to in-person learning. We appreciate your patience as we carefully review all choices and create a plan that is safe and what’s best for all students and staff.
