Dear Mitchell Families,
As we continue to remain in virtual learning status, we are continually seeking ways to provide needed support and flexibility for our families. Based on feedback from our community and building participation data, a decision has been made to move the closing circle up earlier in the day.
Closing Circle is a valued Responsive Classroom practice that we want every student to experience, however, it is still considered "optional" for students & families.
Beginning the week of November 30th, closing circle for students in Y5-5th grade (the entire school) will occur any time between 1:13 p.m. to 1:43 p.m. Classroom teachers will communicate the details to you very soon. Teachers will remain available to assist students individually and/or in small groups and provide asynchronous feedback to students. Please note: While the closing circle will move to earlier in the day to provide more flexibility to families, this does not mean the school day is over. The one-on-one sessions, small group sessions, and additional supports will still take place as scheduled with kids and families.
