Traffic, BTSN, Jog-a-thon & Chipotle

Hello, Phoebe families,

We made it to our 6th day of school. As students and staff ease into our normal school schedule, I wanted to share what our focus has been to aid to the already amazing Phoebe culture. As a staff, we talked about the need to build strong relationships with those students that we serve. Together we watched this  video on ways in which we can become students of our students. Students who feel seen are always more apt to learn.

Would you like to volunteer for traffic help in the mornings?  

Mr. Isaac could use your help as a crossing guard, opening car doors, and moving cars along the drop-off line. Please email me if you would like to help.  [email protected]

Tomorrow is the BIG day!

Hello Phoebe families,

Tomorrow is the big day.  We are SO excited to welcome our dragons to campus.  I want to assure you that we are making all of the necessary preparations to ensure an environment that is safe both emotionally and physically.  As such, there will be many staff members on campus early to guide students where they need to go when they walk through our gates.  Our current guidance does not allow for families to be on campus just yet.  As always, we are here to support our students and families in any way that we can.

Tomorrow’s Shortened Day Schedule:
Every Thursday will be a shortened day schedule.  That includes tomorrow.  Our schedule is as follows:

Kinder 8:00-12:40
1st-3rd 8:00-1:02
4th-6th 8:00-1:17

Testing on site:
We now have two health aides on campus at all times to assist us with our COVID health and safety protocols.  They will help with screening in the morning and with testing on site.  Our testing schedule is as follows:

Tuesdays – 2:00-2:45
Thursdays – 1:00-1:45

If you need additional information, please contact our lead health aide, Jersey Fatlowitz at  [email protected]

Thank you and we will see you tomorrow!
