I hope that this newsletter finds your
family safe and healthy. Hopefully the “Stay Home,
Stay Healthy” mandate has allowed your family time to slow
down and focus on yourselves. This will be a memorable time
in all of our lives and we want to build memories that
strengthen our relationships and our care for each other.
This is what a Sunnycrest Team meeting looks like these
days! As you can imagine it makes it slightly challenging for
our staff to continue to work together from over sixty
households. Most of the time we meet in small groups like the
one above. Thank goodness for the technology that exists that
allows us to keep good communication in a variety of ways.
Still, it is definitely more difficult than when we are all in the
same building. We appreciate your patience as we all get this
figured out.
This past week has been a week of reconnection. Our
number one goal was to be able to check in with every family.
We wanted to make sure that all of our students knew about
the free lunch program and how to get technology to connect
with us if needed. Even though we have been at it a week we
still haven’t heard from everyone. If you are receiving emails
or messages from your child’s teacher please make sure you
respond so we know everything is okay. After spring break we
will be finding other ways to contact families because we want
to make sure everyone is okay. Again, if we can help in any
way please contact us:

Dear Parents:
Dear Parents:
Dear Parents:
We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we get
student learning rolled out. We are aware that people are in
a variety of situations and we don’t want to add stress to
anyone lives but at the same time others are seeking resources.
Everyone should know about the Learning Resource site that is
on the district website. This site is available to families at any
time. Sometimes your child’s teacher will refer to something
on the site but you are also welcome to explore on your own.
Another resource you will want to explore is the Virtual
Library. There you will be able to find ebooks, audio books,
podcasts, you name it. Also you may want to check out
LAMPS. LAMPS has activities from the Library, Art, Music,
Pe, and for Social and emotional learning.
I know that the timing of the closing of schools has been
awkward at best but unavoidable. After March 13th school
was closed. The Governor stated that everyone needed to take
a week to regroup. Then we only had one week of
reconnecting with our students and now we are at spring break.
During the planned spring break, running from Saturday,
March 28th through Sunday, April 5th, we invite you to press
pause on providing educational support to your children and let
this spring break be like any other spring break as much as
possible during this hard time. During this period of days,
Sunnycrest staff will not be responding to emails or through
any of our communication platforms (SeeSaw, Zoom, Google
Classroom, etc.) This will allow our entire Sunnycrest
community time to rest, connect with our loved ones in person
and virtually, and will give our students the time they need to
play and have the pressure off of them for five school days. If
you have an emergency during this time, please do contact Mr.
Bartlow directly by email at
[email protected] or my district cell 425-
754-5394.
I wish you the best during break and anticipate that we will
all come back with a sense of peacefulness and renewed
energy.
Mr. B.
