Hello Families,
Welcome back to school. Here is the link to my google classroom. There is one for k-2 students and one for 3-4 students. They contain the same information, just different guidance lessons. There is a welcome to school video that explains how you can use this resource. I hope you visit my classroom at least once a week for updates and important information!

Chromebook Information
If your child received a computer last spring, then that computer will remain with your child for this next school year. You do not need to return the device. If your computer has technical issues, then please contact DJ Rush at washingtonservices@g.fayar.net.
Your child will use that computer for in-school and virtual lessons. If your child needs a Chromebook, we will issue a device to you. More information on what that will occur is coming soon.

Dear Washington Elementary Families,
Greetings and welcome to a new school year! I want to share with you the most current information that I know to start the new school year. Monday, August 24th is the first day of school. I encourage you to take time to review the Washington Elementary Parent Guide to Reopening Schools. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b8Pfb-oX44wi2oJ6Qnoeo5NkMBwZtJ1J7Ti7XD3mtnU/edit
This document is intended to give you information on how we will operate as a school to not only teach children and create positive relationships, but also to keep all students safe during this unusual start of school. Thank you for your flexibility as we have processed the changes that have evolved over the past couple of weeks as they relate to reopening schools.
I will hold a zoom meeting on Tuesday, August 18 at 3:00 pm to answer questions about Reopening Schools. After you read the parent guide, you can submit your questions on this form. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRpOAanPNnTw7qFhvvDIq6__ehERSKz-hHyGuZ7Yq8ZGOdsA/viewform
Or if you don’t have questions but want to participate, Complete this form to participate in zoom meeting. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRpOAanPNnTw7qFhvvDIq6__ehERSKz-hHyGuZ7Yq8ZGOdsA/viewform
Student Assignments
Your child will know his/her teacher by Wednesday, August 19. As we have done in previous years, teachers will send a postcard in the mail so be on the lookout for that.
Open House
Our Meet Your Teacher Night will be virtual this year and all families are encouraged to participate. A message with zoom links and time will be shared with parents before Thursday, August 20. .

Good afternoon Washington families- an email was sent to share Washington Parent Guide to Reopen Schools.
