Message To The School Community

We love our Clairbourn teachers and appreciate all the work they have been putting into the remote learning lessons. Let’s show them how much they mean to us. There are simple things you can do to show your teachers how special they are like drawing a picture, writing a note, or making a video. We've made Vidigami albums for each teacher, teaching assistant, and specialist so you can post thank-you messages. 

 

 

The student council wrote thank-you cards and recorded videos expressing their heartfelt gratitude to doctors, nurses, researchers, first responders, and essential workers on behalf of the student body.

 

 

Clairbourn School students already know a lot about doing good deeds and alleviating distress in the community, and many of them are supporting healthcare workers and first-responders. But there is now a new frontline in the larger battle which is our very own doorsteps. These times call for a deeper level of service to precious family members who we often take for granted. The need of the hour is to make family care and balance a priority. So take a moment to imagine, how quickly the atmosphere in your home would change if you could take a tip from the military and assigned a Morale Officer to take care of each person in the family?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Clorox wipes and Lysol are still not widely available, and as your supplies run low, you may want to know how to make an effective hard-surface disinfectant using water and bleach. It is important to check you have the right type of bleach, that the bleach hasn't expired, follow manufacturer bleach application and ventilation directions, and let it sit on the surface for one minute. Never mix household bleach with ammonia or any other cleanser. View the guidelines to make your own disinfectant.

Middle School Math teacher Mrs Messler used dance as a new and fun way to engage and teach her Algebra students. Mrs. Messler found a popular TikTok dance that the students liked, and she made up her own dance version of it to teach her students about parent functions. The dance was a unique way for students to learn the shapes that each of the parent functions make when they are graphed on a coordinate plane. Watch the video below!
