From the Principal
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We hope you are all doing well with the “Home Learning Plan” lessons and have adjusted to this new, temporary schedule. We greatly appreciate all the work our students have been accomplishing at home. We are very proud of them! Join us next week for a K-4 Virtual Spirit Week! Please see the flyer above this letter and in the Digital Backpack for details. You can send photos and videos to communication@nanuetsd.org and Ashley Columbia, our PR person, will post them for all to see. Use the hashtag #HomeLearning. Can’t wait to see you!
As we begin week three of the “Home Learning Plan” on Monday, you will see some new and exciting lessons created by your teachers. You will find the lessons for days 11 through 15 in the grade level links below. The teachers continue to work hard to communicate with students and families and develop learning plans that suit many different learning styles. Teachers are monitoring online learning and have enjoyed the many notes and pictures you have been sharing. Please reach out to your teachers if you have questions or concerns. We are here to help as we work together to navigate through this process. As you are aware, Governor Cuomo announced this morning that schools will remain closed until April 15th, therefore Nanuet Schools are engaging in “At Home Learning” through Wednesday, April 8th.
We appreciate how challenging it is to juggle working from home, managing the learning, and scheduling technology use. In an attempt to gather information on how we can help, the district has created a K-12 Nanuet Community Survey. Please complete the survey so we can gauge how to best support this process. You only have to complete the survey once regardless of how many students you have. Please click here to access the survey: https://forms.gle/GMxifyA3fYBTdz8PA
Below you will find a link to grade level documents outlining work for each day of the closing. We continue to organize the schedule much like a normal school day. You will find a combination of online resources as well as some paper and pencil resources. Please follow the links to online resources embedded in the plan. For George Miller families, you will find your child’s username and password for the online resources in the packet sent home. For Highview families, you will find your child’s username and password for the online resources in the Homework Planner. Your child’s teacher regularly monitors student progress when using the online resources. Please also find a copy of the document for each grade level on our Digital Backpack.

First Grade: First Grade Daily Work
Second Grade: Second Grade Daily Work
Third Grade: Third Grade Daily Work
Fourth Grade: Fourth Grade Daily Work
We have made every attempt to provide a reasonable amount of work and have indicated an estimated duration for the activities. There is no easy way to replace the rich classroom experience when your child is in school but this extenuating situation requires that we plan ahead to serve our students and families in the best way possible when school is closed.
Please continue to monitor the District’s website, as Dr. McCahill will notify the community of any updates. Thank you for your continued support. We hope this update finds you and your family safe and in good health. We miss our young Knights and want nothing more than to see them back in their classrooms!
Sincerely,
Nancy Bonner and Maryellen Griffin
