HMS Week 2 Distance Learning Dear Teachers, Parents and Students, It is with deep gratitude that I write to you all this morning.  The support of all parents in our scurry to provide high-quality on-line distance teaching and learning has been undeniably one of our foundational cornerstones.  The teachers worked through their unpredicted vacation week as a true professional learning community to learn new internet platforms, learn new and best practices for virtual learning that keeps children engaged and passionate.  We experienced some potholes but we bypassed them with success.  It is heartwarming to see how dedicated all the parents and teachers have been working night and day for the benefit of the children.   I am blessed to be a part of a community that bonds together to support each other recognizing the importance of showing our children how to deal with productive struggle, perseverance, and passion for learning.  While we may be physically separated, we are growing together in a very special way.   I hope everyone had a healthy weekend, made family memories and got some sunshine in on Saturday!  What did you do that was new, different and out of the ordinary?  By weekday, I am an elementary school principal, by weekend, a fire pit builder and an interior painter!  Definitely new and different for me!  Last week, you all ROCKED it!  Let's grab hold of this week and attack it with the vigor you did last week!   Please feel free to contact me with any questions via email so I may be a support to you!   Wash, wash, wash your hands!  Tracey A.
