YG Newsletter – January 28, 2021

Report Cards – Update

In last week’s newsletter, in the calendar section, we showed that report cards would be sent home on February 8th. Since last week, there has been a change in how and when we will send home report cards. Instead of being emailed report cards on February 8th, families will be able to pick up printed report cards at the supply pickup, scheduled for next Thursday. Please see announcement on Supply Pick-Up – Round 5 below for more information.

Report cards for non-custodial parents or parents who have shared custody will have a second set of report cards (standard and Japanese) included in the supply bags; however if you need the report card emailed or mailed separately, please contact Karen in the office to let her know you need a report card sent separately.

New Teacher Hired to Support Hybrid

What will Hybrid Look Like for YG?

At this time, we do not yet know exactly what hybrid will look like, but we have some preliminary ideas, but there are still some decisions that need to be made by the 4J Operations Team, including the schedule, how hybrid students in the week they are learning from home will receive instruction, and how students who are in Same School Online will connect with the classes in which they started the year.

Our goal is to keep students connected with their classrooms, including Same School Online, as much as possible. While some students will have a different teacher than the one they started with, we will find ways to keep them connected with their same-grade classmates. We want to thank everyone for their patience as we continue to watch the local metrics and await a decision on a start date for hybrid learning.
