WEEKLY NEWS
Hello Diamond Creek Families! We hope you had a nice, relaxing spring break with family and that your families are staying safe and healthy. 

This week our students officially kicked off Virtual Learning.  We know this can be stressful and overwhelming as a family as we balance educating our children at home and working full time.  The Garcia household is working through this balance as well! We are all in this together. Our teachers have put in hours of hard work to plan lessons that align with our grade level standards and curriculum so that students are prepared for next school year. We understand that these lessons might be done at different times of the day or parts may be completed at a time.  We are all working together to do our best during these unknown and unchartered pathways we are living in right now. Please reach out to myself or your child's classroom teacher if you have specific questions.  Thank you for all you are doing at home to help your child(ren)…

Our virtual learning will officially begin on April 14th after spring break.  Please make sure to have your child log in to Google Classroom each day for daily ELA, Math and Writing lessons.  Our teachers will post the two week outline of plans for the class and then will also post individual daily messages to explain the daily work.  Please reach out to our teachers if you are having trouble accessing Google Classroom or have any questions about the virtual learning assignments.  Students are to begin turning in assignments through Google Classroom and completing the work that is assigned each day.  We know this is a lot to think about! We are here to support you along this distance learning journey.
