| We know that over the past few days, a number of
unprecedented measures implemented by our provincial and federal governments to
reduce the spread of COVID-19 have impacted us all. Many are experiencing
heightened feelings of concern and uncertainty as we wait to see what the
future will bring, and hope for the speedy end to this pandemic.
At CVS the safety and security of our staff, students and
families are of utmost importance to us. To that end, this week we are all
doing our part to ensure that our school building and learning materials are
properly cleaned and sanitized, so that this will continue to be a safe and
healthy place for your students to come when classes resume. We are also
practicing social distancing by allowing staff to work from home wherever
possible. We thank you for your support and cooperation in this.
Staff at CVS are working with Alberta Education and the
Calgary Board of Education to develop plans that will allow us to continue to
serve our students and parent community after spring break. Please know that we
will continue to be here for you. Shortly after we return to work on April 6th,
team members will connect with you to check in and to share information about
how we will provide ongoing academic and social emotional learning
opportunities for your child. Please feel free to contact your child’s
classroom team by email after April 6th, whether for academic
support, regulation tools and strategies, access to psychological supports for
students, information about community supports and resources, or to share
important updates.
In the meantime, over the next two weeks, be safe and take
good care.
Melanie Clark | Principal
