Morning Everyone,
Hope everyone is doing well this morning. Please check Google Classroom for any updated resources. There is a NewsELA article that students can read about why everything is getting shut down due to the virus. I will also be posting the CNN 10’s (which gives a student friendly news that is going on across the US and abroad). Also I will be uploading a link to Discovery Education (our digital textbook) they are doing a student challenge that may be an option if students would like to compete for a chance to win some prizes. Please be safe everyone and stay in communication with me if any questions or concerns.
We will be updating everyone with information from Laveen Elementary School on our Facebook page and Instagram page. There will be important information, readings from faculty members, daily yoga and meditation with Mr. Tucker, and daily workout routines with Coach Ford.

Hello Families:
I am reaching out to all my students and their families to provide some information on what to expect throughout our closure. Schools are expected to be closed through March 27. Please take a moment to read the following information. Please respond that you have read it so I know that it reached you.
Academics and Educational Resources:
Teachers have been working to develop lessons and resources that you can work on at home with your children. In addition to all curriculum materials being available online, we have developed an Online Resources website, where you can find various resources to help your child keep up with academics. This can be found under the “Students” tab on our district website, www.LaveenSchools.org.
Please remember that your child will need to log in to our curriculum platforms in order to access the material. If you do not have your child’s login information, please contact me and I can provide it to you. One single sign-on through Google gives students access to all of our digital curriculum programs Watch this video for details on logging in.
Please be aware that all Laveen schools have strict internet filtering when a student connects from our server. Once you use your personal device, this filter is not available. Please monitor your child’s internet usage as they will be able to explore whatever sites your home computer allows. Be sure to watch this informational video, also on the website, for parents on how to filter home internet, Internet Filters to Keep Kids Safe Online
Internet Connectivity
If you do not have wi-fi or are unable to access the internet at home, Cox Communications is offering one free month of internet access to qualifying low-income families through their Connect2Compete program. T-Mobile is also offering an EmpowerED data plan.
Free Meals for Children
Despite school closures, Laveen schools are providing free breakfast and lunch to all children. Families may visit any Laveen school (except Vista) for a grab & go bag. Breakfast is available from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and lunch is available from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Monday- Friday.
Children must be present to take a meal. Adult meals are not available. Families do not need to register for meals and there are no income requirements. Children do not need to be Laveen students. The district plans to expand this service to off-site locations in the coming days.
Child Care:
We know that some parents cannot work without childcare. For families needing this service, Laveen’s Kids Club will operate a day camp program that provides structured activities in a safe, supervised environment for children in grades preschool – 6th. This will take place at two locations, Desert Meadows and Paseo Pointe. The cost is $35 a day or $120 per week (preschool is $125 per week). A three-day plan is also available. The hours are 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Our Kids Club staff is cognizant of the importance of a clean environment and incorporates cleaning with a bleach solution as part of their regular protocol. Children and staff showing any signs of illness will be sent home. Please visit our Kids Club page for details.

Good Morning Everyone,
Wanted to first tell you that we are all here for you. You can feel free to email any 8th grade teacher and we will gladly respond. I know that it is a little scary and trying time to have so much uncertainty but understand that this is an unprecedented event that has everyone in a sense of uncertainty. We have to follow the guidelines and procedures set forth from the CDC (Center of Disease Control). The best thing to do is to continue moving forward as if there is nothing really changed. So we are going to continue to move forward within the 4th quarter.
Every day I will be posting assignments on the website and through Google Classroom, as we continue our discussion on World War II and the Holocaust. We will also be discussing human rights and what those are.
Please stay safe and remain indoors. I look forward to hearing from you all.
We will be having a Parent/Guardian Meeting for the D.C. Trip on August 29th, 2019. We will have the meeting in the library.
Curriculum Night September 11th, 2019. It will be in the gym.
