Dear Parents,

Thank you for your support during what has been one of the most challenging years in education.

In order to focus on the wellbeing of students, families, and employees, Friday, February 11 will be converted from a flexible Friday to a Health and Wellness day.

The District will provide access to a range of online Health and Wellness information and curriculum for families and students of all ages. All materials will be emailed to parents directly so you can make choices about what resources provided to you would be most helpful and appropriate for members of your family.

Student work will not need to be submitted to the school or district. Families will be able to choose how they wish to engage with the materials provided. There will be no school meals, busing, or access to teachers on Friday, February 11.

We take seriously our role as a support to the primary learning that happens within the family. We hope you will find the time and resources helpful in promoting greater health and wellness in our community.

More information will be forthcoming. Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,
