Parent emails
Good morning 8th grade parents,
I am hoping everyone is staying safe and doing well during this difficult time. I have communicated to the 8th grade students that I wanted to have a parent meeting and that I needed parent emails. I have only received a few. If you haven’t yet sent me your email I would greatly appreciate it. I know there are several questions you might have about graduation and I’d hope we can meet via zoom to discuss this special time.
Buenos dias,
Espero que todos estén bien durante este momento difícil. Les comuniqué a los alumnos de 8º grado que quería tener una reunión de padres y que necesitaba correos electrónicos de padres. Solo he recibido unos pocos. Si aún no me han enviado su correo electrónico, se lo agradecería mucho. Sé que hay varias preguntas sobre la graduación y espero que podamos reunirnos a través de zoom para discutir este momento especial.
Blessings,
Ms. Larios
