Attention Salt Creek School District 48 Families: Please check your email for an important school update or view the letter here: https://tinyurl.com/ybb7f857
Best,
Mrs. Angie Ross
Curriculum Director
Now that we are spending more time than ever at home with our family members, this is a great opportunity to convey important family stories orally and sing some songs in your home language. Storybooks and reading together is time well spent too! These rich cultural and linguistic interactions can bolster children’s sense of themselves and their primary language skills. Research supports that ultimately it is easier to master a second (or third) language and school learning when your primary language, culture, and sense of identity are stronger.
Parents and Caregivers- Don't forget that we are hosting a get-together on Zoom tonight! Join us to talk with our social workers and each other at 7:00pm! Email Mrs. Scholtes (kscholtes@saltcreek48.org) for details!
Our Stay at Home order is not slowing down our Viking Pride! Great drawing Little Vikings! Show us your Viking creation and you can be the next shared artist!
Reminder!! Today is meal pickup from 10am-12pm at Albright Middle School.
Also, if families are not sheltering at home/close to district 48 here is a good resource to locate meals near you: https://usda-fns.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=789a7a56a07f4e3dab873fd8c2918f9a
Parents, would you benefit from some adult conversation in your life right now? We understand the stress of e-learning amongst all of your other responsibilities. We want you to have a place to chat with other parents, so we have created this upcoming event.
Albright Vikings,
Your One School, One Book is on it’s way! We will read Chapters 1-8 this week, but don’t worry the chapters are very short. See you Friday at 1:15pm for our next OSOB meet up! Keeping connected with our Viking Community is more important than ever before. - Ms. Aulisa
If you call any of our offices, please leave a message. We are monitoring our phone lines daily. Someone will get back to you as soon as we can!
