Essential Worker Video

Here is the link to the essential worker video. You may put it on any of your social media platforms.  We would love for it to get to as many people as possible so they know we thank them for all they do.

Face Book Live Storytime!

Next week! HTE families who subscribe to the private FB Parents of Holy Trinity Elementary group can join me for a FB Live Storytime. It won’t be as quite as good as the real thing, but I am exploring every chance to connect with kids! Contact Ms Borden for more info!

Google Meet — Privacy Guidelines for Teachers and Families (April 8, 2020)

Please find the memo from NLESD here

Guidelines for Families to Help Protect Student and Family Privacy:

Video meetings between teachers and students are extensions of the classroom and regular

classroom rules apply. While we are connecting with students in a virtual environment, everyone

has a responsibility to ensure the protection of privacy. Please strictly adhere to the following

guidelines:

● Teachers will invite students to participate in virtual meetings by sharing a meeting URL

or unique nickname through Gmail or Google Classroom. To ensure that only invited

guests have access to the session, please do not share this meeting information

publicly.

● The meeting will show the names and faces of student participants. To ensure that

identities are kept private, please do not post any photos or videos of your child’s virtual

meetings to social media if other student faces or names are shown.

● Discuss ways you can protect the privacy of members of your household, such as

physically locating in one spot without background activity.

Important Note

Good Day to All,

I hope that all of you remain safe through this whole ordeal.  Teachers, administration and district personnel are in contact daily with sharing of information.  HTE teachers have been reaching out to stay connected with their students while trying to be respectful of the fact that this is a very difficult time for all families as they try to adjust to this situation.  We will continue to work on staying connected and promoting and supporting learning for our students.

The latest memo from Mr. Tony Stack, our Director of Education, that was released this afternoon.

Please stay safe,

XO
