Dear Parents and Guardians,

Assalamualaikum,

Thank you for your continued patience & Sabr during this evolving situation. As with all our work, student and staff safety is our highest priority. Due to recent events with the outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States, we are taking the necessary precautions to prevent the spread of illness.

As we negotiate this uncharted territory, we believe that the time has come for our school to make an important decision.

Great care and research went into this decision; however, we regret the hardships this will cause for some of our families. At this time, we believe that is the right step to take for the health and safety of our families, employees, and the community at large — especially to protect our students and employees who are immunosuppressed or at greater risk due to age and other reasons.

Learning, however, will continue at home via a distance (with learning packets) or online learning model leveraging technology programs. We are committed to ensuring continuous and meaningful learning for all. You can feel confident that these e-learning days will:

Ensure equal access to the learning and required materials, including technology
Support different learning and teaching needs, including the ability to provide differentiated instruction as well as one-on-one support for students who need it
Provide training to staff, students, and parents and guardians on how systems work and what expectations the school has
Support tracking of attendance for both students and staff. *Students are required to participate in a minimum of 90% of the assignments to count toward their daily attendance.
Leverage only secure systems that will not allow for the release of protected student or staff information
Your child’s teacher will provide additional details about how learning will continue. Because of the magnitude of this decision, I ask that you please reach out to Sr. Mona or me with individual requests and needs. We will serve as the first contacts for funneling communications throughout the system.

We are committed to providing you with timely and accurate updates on the best recommendations and guidance from our public health authorities. We’ll continue monitoring the situation weekly and proceed on a week-by-week basis.

In the meantime, we encourage everyone to access the latest, most accurate information about COVID-19 from the World Health Organization (https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public) and the CDC (www.cdc.gov/covid-19). Also, please check the school website and Legacy Learning Facebook page for updates.

Sincerely,

Tewfik Choukri
