[EMERGENCY REMOTE TEACHING PERIOD]

January - April 2021

NOTE: Dear Parents and Students. In this time of tremendous uncertainty presented by this global pandemic that is CO-VID 19, we would like to remind all concerned of the need for great flexibility during this period. The SOW provided is our best estimate regarding what we hope that we can realistically cover IF there is no further challenge presented for the system to deal with. We therefore leave the doors open to possible adjustments – whether in terms of content or deadlines, that may be necessary in the short or medium terms in order to cope with challenges of a technical /health/accessibility nature. We assure you that we are open to dialogue in order to make things as comfortable as possible for students, teachers, parents and families, so please do not hesitate to reach out. Continue to remain safe as we all navigate these perilous times.
