Eagle Gram - Thanksgiving Edition

Happy Thanksgiving with leaves and cranberries.

Dear Clermont Families,

As we prepare for Thanksgiving Break, Ms. Peace, the Clermont Staff, and I want to express how thankful we are for your patience and support this school year. We are grateful for your willingness to let us explore new ways of instruction, and for sticking by our sides when technology was less than friendly. We hope your Zoom Thanksgiving dinners are joyful, and you get some time to spend with family and friends whether virtual or in person. From our house to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

In PE class, students have been talking about managing emotions and using yoga, dance, and movement as a healthy way to express ourselves. Mrs. Velishka put together these links that can be enjoyed by all who are willing to get a little silly over the Thanksgiving break.

Take care of yourself and each other,

Ms. Salata
