Happy Friday!!!

Wow, does anyone else feel like this week was REALLY long! As both a school leader and a parent, some days I think we are getting our arms around distance education and other days - not so much. We have overcome a lot of hurdles, but there are yet many hurdles to overcome. Thank you for your patience, considerate advise, and support as we all navigate our way through this.

SCHOOL PICTURES
School Pictures have been cancelled indefinitely. We are working on some ideas for how to make them work, but until those are finalized please disregard any previous communication you have received regarding school pictures.

STUDENT PICTURES
We want to put together a video montage of what online learning looks like for you. If you would like to be included, send us photos of your students learning online. Please make sure they are photos you don't mind us sharing publicly. Send photos to jconnolly@freedomclassical.org

3-DAY WEEKEND
We will be conducting professional development on Monday so there will be no school. Please enjoy the three-day weekend.

CAMPUS CLOSED
Unfortunately a few of our beloved staff members tested positive for COVID prompting us to issue a work-at-home order through September 25th. As such, the campus will be closed to all visitors. We can still be reached through the school's main phone line.

VERIFICATION FORM
We only have little more than a week to collect the remaining income verification forms from families. Right now we have less than half of our families that have completed the form. Remember, this impacts our school ratings. If you are among those that want us to one day have a high school campus, help us by completing this form if you have not already done so by our family.

CHROMEBOOK DISTRIBUTION
We anticipate the arrival of several new Chromebooks this coming week. Based on form completion, those have all been allotted. If you are selected to receive one of those devices, you will be notified of a time to pick it up. Otherwise, we have an additional order that has been placed but is on backorder due to demand. We will notify you when additional devices are available.

PARENT UNIVERSITY
We would like to begin offering short live courses to parents to help you better assist your students in their online learning. We need your help in deciding what courses would be the most useful. Please click the link below and let us know your thoughts.
