Dear Wines Families,
Well, believe it or not, we’ve reached the final week of school and my final “Wednesday Email” of the year (though there will be frequent communication this summer). This will certainly be a year we will all remember and I hope we all remember it fondly—at least as it relates to school. While the past 12 weeks or so will likely be what everyone remembers, I do hope we all take some time to reflect on the entirety of the school year and all that we have accomplished together. As I wrap up my 10th year at Wines, I can say that I am as excited for the next year as I have ever been. Regardless of what school looks like in the fall, I’m humbled to be able to lead this amazing staff and be part of this incredible school community. Thank you!
School Access
I’ve been asked by a few families about the possibility of gaining access to school to pick up items and/or drop off items. Please look for a detailed message from me tomorrow or Friday regarding this possibility. In short, we will offer VERY limited access to families next Friday, June 19th. At this time, families will have the opportunity to pick up essential items such as medication. All non-essential items will be made available later in August. Fifth grade families will have the opportunity to return instruments and library books at that time and families who are not returning to Wines will be able to drop off library books as well. However, returning families will be asked to hold on to any items until fall and leave all non-essential items at school. Again, look for more detailed information this week.
Auction Ends Friday at 8:00 PM
The live online auction of our classroom projects is still open until Friday at 8:00 PM. Below is a link if you are interested in bidding.
Enrollment for 2020-2021
This week—even as early as today—you will be receiving an email from backtoschool@a2schools.org with information about completing your enrollment for next fall. This is something we do every year. Your email will have a link to enroll that has your “snapcode” embedded. If you did this last year, nearly all of your information is pre-populated and it just takes a few minutes. It is crucial that everyone complete the enrollment. Please be on the lookout for the email.
AAPS COVID-19 Closure Survey
While our school buildings are closed due to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic this spring, our educators have continued to serve students through virtual learning. You should have received a survey from K12 Insight via email that asks questions about your family's experience with district and school communication, technology access and resources, virtual learning, and community resources during this spring closure. Toward the end of the survey, questions about your preferences for the type of educational setting and supports you anticipate needing for next school year. Your responses are confidential. In case you missed the email from K12 Insight you can access the survey here. We invite you to explore the Ann Arbor Public Schools Reimagine Learning Framework 2020-2021 at https://www.a2schools.org/reimagine.
Well, that’s all for this week! Thank you again for a wonderful school year and please stay keep checking your inbox as this summer will likely have more communication than other summers!
David
