Greetings Roadrunners!

Congratulations on completing the second formal week of Distance Learning. I hope everyone is well and making their way through these unprecedented times. Please understand moving forward that we will be challenged by the true meaning of flexibility and patience. I have no doubt in my mind that the Larsen students, families, and staff will continue to persevere and thrive during this time.

For parents, please know that YOU are doing all you can for your kids and that this is a truly unique time for everyone. We understand that is trying for you to fulfill your work duties from home, juggle finances, monitor your new “home-school students”, provide childcare and do all you can to keep your family safe during this pandemic. I encourage you to show “Grace & Flexibility” on yourself at home during this time in addition to your children, their teachers and the community. I encourage you to take this time with your children to really explore new areas of their interests or partake in family activities that you may not have had the luxury of time to do before. A silver lining can always be found if we look hard enough!

Also, rest assured that teachers across our district are ready to “meet students where they are” in their learning when they return for the 2020-2021 school year. I know that for Larsen, our mission will be to look for any learning gaps that occurred during school closures and formulate lessons and resources to address them and make our Roadrunners even better than they already are! Have a great week and go Roadrunners!

Best Regards,

Mrs. Guillen

Saludos Roadrunners!

Felicidades por completar la segunda semana formal de 'educación a distancia.' Espero que todos estén bien durante estos tiempos imprecedentes. Por favor, comprendan que en el futuro seremos retados por el verdadero significado de la flexibilidad y la paciencia. No tengo dudas en mi mente de que los estudiantes, las familias y el personal de Larsen continuarán perseverando y prosperando durante este tiempo.

Para los padres, sepan que USTED está haciendo todo lo posible por sus hijos y que este es un momento verdaderamente único para todos.Sabemos que es dificil cumplir con sus obligaciones laborales desde casa, mantener las finanzas, supervisar a nuestros nuevos "estudiantes de la escuela en casa", proporcionar cuidado de niños y hacer todo lo posible para mantener a la familia segura durante esta pandemia. Les animo a que muestren “gracia y flexibilidad” a si mismo en casa durante este tiempo, además de sus hijos, sus maestros y la comunidad. Tambien les animo a que tome este tiempo con sus hijos para explorar realmente nuevas áreas de sus intereses o participen en actividades familiares que quizás no haya tenido el lujo de hacer anteriormente. ¡Siempre se puede encontrar un lado positivo si buscamos lo suficiente!

Además, tenga la seguridad de que los maestros en todo nuestro distrito están listos para "ensenar a los estudiantes donde esten" en su aprendizaje cuando regresen para el año escolar 2020-2021. Sé que para Larsen, nuestra misión será buscar las brechas de aprendizaje que ocurrieron durante el cierre de las escuelas y formular lecciones y recursos para abordarlos y hacer que nuestros Roadrunners(correcaminos) sean aún mejores de lo que ya son. ¡Que tengan una buena semana y arriba Roadrunners!

Atentamente,

Sra. Guillén

Thank you for making the Larsen Staff Parade a success! We were delighted and overjoyed to see the many smiling faces helping us spread cheer. We miss you very much Roadrunners and we want you to know how much we care about your learning and about remaining connected with you as much as possible. Keep up the great work!

There’s no doubt that COVID-19 distance learning makes this academic school year unlike any other. Teacher Appreciation Week begins on May 4th and it offers an opportunity to take a moment and express our gratitude to teachers.

Teachers inspire curiosity and a lifelong love of learning. They’re experts at boosting confidence through the right mix of motivation and instruction. They wear multiple hats as quarrel mediators, supportive listeners, and all-around problem fixers. And now they’re doing it all remotely, as schools across the country have closed because of the Corina-virus pandemic.

National Teacher Appreciation Week is a chance to thank educators for all they do to ensure that students succeed in school and in life.
