\"\"<\/span>Dear PVMS Families,<\/span><\/p>\n

April is upon us and with that comes warmer weather, showers, and flowers and trees start to bloom.\u00a0 I\u2019m hopeful that we have more sunshine than showers, as our children<\/span><\/p>\n

benefit greatly from being outside.\u00a0 This is imperative during times like this for everyone\u2019s social and emotional health.\u00a0 We miss your child(ren) more than ever!<\/span><\/p>\n

Partnership:<\/b><\/p>\n

We can\u2019t thank you enough for partnering with us through these times of social distancing and isolation.\u00a0 Many of you are trying to work from home, feed your children, and ensure that their education is continuing.\u00a0 We know that this isn\u2019t easy! There are a few things to consider during times like this. As we come to terms with a new normal and move through a time of virtual learning, we hope that you are doing well and have found a balance of academic, emotional, social, and health needs of you and your family.\u00a0 We miss seeing your child(ren) each and every day. Our teachers and staff also miss their normal, daily routine with your child(ren). Staying connected is the best way for us to navigate these unprecedented times. Together we are stronger!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Grading:<\/b><\/p>\n

When it comes to turning in work and grading, please know that we are flexible.\u00a0 Everyday is different and we should do our best to create consistent schedules for our children but know that this isn\u2019t always reality.\u00a0 Teachers will be marking assignments for completion and\/or provide feedback to keep on track with curriculum needs. Please contact teachers if your child is having difficulty and may need more support.\u00a0 We want to make sure that everyone\u2019s needs have been met and we want to be able to support you in any way possible.<\/span><\/p>\n
