Dear Students,
It is important that you know a few things.
Your teachers are thinking about you. In fact, they are worried and losing sleep
thinking about you. They are worried
about your learning and being ready for the next grade. The fact that they cannot
support you in the classroom right now is painful. But that is not the most important
thing.
They are worried about you being safe. Do you have food? How are you doing with the anxiety of this
unknown? Are you worried about adult problems?
Are there adults at home with you who are safe? Do you have the things that you need?
That is what weighs heavy on our hearts.
This will come to an end.
We will be back together. We will
give high fives and hugs. We will come
back together to learn, play 4-square, argue about 4-square, and it will be
great.
To my Bulldogs, I cannot wait to cheer you on, and promise
to sit with you when it is hard.
In the meantime, you are in my heart and mind.
