A Note from The Director
Dear Parents,
We are so happy to be able to offer your children safe physical activity again. One month has gone by since our opening and things are going smoothly. I want to thank you all for joining us in person and virtually. As a school director and parent myself, I have a range of emotions daily with everything going on in the world, but I am grateful to this community and I am in awe of the student’s resilience. We truly are in this all together and it will take the whole community to continue to be diligent in order for us to continue. Although we can’t see the children’s smiles behind their masks, their happiness is witnessed in their voices, bodies and excitement to learn.
I would like to share a few updates:
*Thank you for your attention to the Health Questionnaire. It should be filled out on the day your child attends a class. It is now on our website under the Covid-19 link here. I have added a question regarding quarantine from school. If your child must quarantine due to possible exposure at school, they also must miss their class at Discovery. Please keep in mind the Travel Advisory question for any travel you have planned over the next few months for holidays.
* At times, we may need to cancel class or put a substitute teacher in a class if a staff member exhibits any symptoms or if they have a possible exposure and are awaiting test results. We apologize for this inconvenience. Any confirmed positive cases will be communicated.
*The children are doing really well with their masks! I am so proud of them. Please make sure your child’s mask is 2 layers at least and is not a mask with an exhalation valve. We have children’s masks if their mask break or in uncomforable during class.
*Please don’t forget to pack them a water bottle. We are avoiding use of the water fountain.
*We are hoping to be able to video sections of classes so parents can see their child participate. More information on this coming soon!
This month, we are highlighting our gymnastics coaches. See below. Share this with your child and ask them which coach is theirs! We will share info on our other teachers next month!
Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
