Schedule Updates:
Friday there is no school for students. The end of the semester is always a teacher work day to complete grades and prepare for the second semester. Students will not have a homeroom class, and there will be no asynchronous work.
Schedule Adjustments:
We have also changed the schedule that follows a Monday holiday. Students will attend all 6 classes on Tuesday January 19th. The classes are shortened. Teachers will inform students if it will be an asynchronous or synchronous lesson.
We will be back to normal with three classes on Wednesday January 20th.
Hello all –
A reminder that our winter recess begins at the end of the day Friday. Students will be off from December 21st through January 1st and will be back to online learning January 4th. During this long break I want to encourage students to read as much as possible. I know some students will also have some make up work to complete. When we come back from break students will have two weeks until the end of the first semester on January 15th.
We will have a yearbook this year! Like everything it’ll be a Covid edition. But we really need your support. Please send pictures to the yearbook committee at kms_yearbook2020 on instagram. If you are not an instagram user you can always send them to askkorematsu@wccusd.net and be sure to label the pictures. Send us head shots, funny photos, halloween pictures, zoom shots, and anything that we might add to the yearbook.
Please check out the semi-weekly news. As more students participate we are beginning to see a great show.
I hope everyone has a pleasant and safe winter recess. Please take care of one another and keep reading!
PS – I sent this newsletter to all student last week. It provides some information that may be useful. I do want to encourage students and families to participate in the after school program (Extended Learning Program) as it does offer turning and socializing options.
