Road to RE-Opening UpdateHopefully you have read our letter (read that here) sharing that Creative City will be re-opening for in person learning on April 12 for families who choose. Later this week, we will post a way for you to indicate your interest in this option if you wish. Meanwhile, our Re-Opening Committee had its first meeting yesterday, February 8. WE NEED MORE MEMBERS – both parents/family members as well as staff. Contact Ms. Canino at MCanino@bcps.k12.md.us if you are interested. The Re-Opening Committee meets every Monday afternoon from 3:30 – 5:00pm. Each Monday, part of the meeting will be working groups in the following focus areas, and part of the meeting will be full group to make sure that all of our work is coordinated. Working groups include: · INSTRUCTION: Refining the way that we teach to make sure we are meeting the needs of students both in-person and virtual, while ensuring teachers are supported and have what they need. · SCHOOLWIDE PROCEDURES & ROUTINES: Adapting the ways we move through parts of the day including (but not limited to) arrival, dismissal, hallway transitions, meals (and more) to ensure health and safety. · FACILITY: Preparing our physical space to safely receive students in this new environment. · COMMUNICATION & SUPPORT: Proactively providing useful, accessible information to families, selecting ways to share this information that will reach the most people. Also, working to find creative solutions to barriers that staff and families may be experiencing. We recognize and care about the many human needs, questions, and concerns embedded in this transition. Our next meeting will be Monday, February 15 at 3:30pm (yes, it is a day off from school) – Ms. Canino will share the meeting link with those who express interest to her.
