The end of the term is drawing to a close and as I look back upon the first part of the school year I can be nothing but very pleased and proud of our staff and students. Not only have we navigated the public health orders of the new school year, but our students have also settled into a routine of learning, playing, and socializing. The need for students to be together learning has never been so great. Their learning takes place everywhere as we return to field trips, buddy classes, and intraschool sports and activities.

The start of the school year went off without a hitch. Thank you to staff and parents for a smooth start-up. As the month has progressed we have settled into more normal routines for all. At first, it seemed a little busy on our playground as all the children were out at the same time unsure of where to play. But as the month draws to a close, we can see them settling into games of hopscotch, 4 Square, tetherball, and basketball. It's refreshing and joyful.

Dear Harry Sayers School Community

I would like to start off with a message of gratitude towards staff, parents, and students for their trust as Mrs. Stapleton and I led them through a challenging year of school. It is looking hopeful that the startup for school in the Fall of 2021 will be normal. For parents and students, I hope you are ready for a normal schedule with an 840- 233 school day.

March Madness?

It has been a delight and a gift to have warmer sunnier weather. Our students are thriving at school in their academics, their play, and their health. Our staff is feeling similar except they are ready for Spring Break just like the students. The second term has been a time of concentrated learning and recovery for many students. We are starting to make our normal gains. Our work at home and school is not done. As a community, we know you value school and us as educators. We need to continue to work together promoting reading and writing.
