Thank You Cordero Community Builders!
I want to thank the teachers who have begun community builders with their grade levels and classes both virtually and in-person. Seeing you out around the neighborhood has been a delight. More events to come.
Schedule Adjustments Put On Hold
This week we will continue with the same schedule with no adjustments. There were plenty of different sources of information last week that suggested a shorter instructional day and teachers re-entering the building. In a meeting with Superintendent Walker, he clearly stated that right now the schedule will not be adjusted and there will be a district survey forthcoming to identify areas in need of adjustment. Further, he stated that re-entry for teachers and students would be decided based upon the health data which changes on a daily basis.
Building Cleaning/Preparation Progress
Even so, there is continued work at the building to ensure that we are ready to enter on November 17. Classrooms are cleaned on a regular basis and are beginning to be set up in a manner that will allow for all students who enter to have their own workspaces. The air ducts in the whole building were cleaned via a district vendor and that work was completed on the 16th. PPE, student dividers and other materials to ensure the school is safe are also on the way.
Go Math Issues in Grades 3-5
Early last week, the district made some adjustments to the platforms and, unfortunately, that has created a disruption in the Math Program, especially in grades 3-5. While teachers continue to teach math, their instruction has had to become more adapted to the current restraints. This is a district-wide issue and they are resolving it, but it will take time. We appreciate your patience and will update you once all systems are working.
