WELCOME TO DISTANCE LEARNING – WEEK 2
We are starting week 2 of the Distance Learning Journey with our Wildcats! Our teachers have done an incredible job preparing and planning for an engaging Distance Learning experience. I am so grateful for their time, professionalism, talent, and GRIT. Please be sure to show your gratitude for our amazing team! We also appreciate all our parents! Thank you for partnering with us during these unprecedented times. Please know we are here to support you through Distance Learning and are happy to answer any questions you may have. We know that we will all get through this together. We miss you so much!
During this time of physical distancing, it is so important for us to stay connected with one another. One way we will do this is by having a Virtual Spirit Week that we can all participate in from our homes.
Share your pictures of your Loma Verde School Spirit! Post your AWESOME PHOTOS to the Loma Verde Facebook @LomaVerdeElementary and Loma Verde Twitter @LomaVerdeSchool or send them to your teacher and Mrs. Watson bree.watson@cvesd.org.
