Proud to be a Title I School
September 28, 2020
I am excited to be starting our face to face hybrid instruction model the week of October 5th for those families who have chosen to attend our school through this option. For all of you coming for face to face instruction our school day is from 7:45- 2:40. I will be sending out transportation information concerning car arrival and dismissal and bus pickup by Wednesday of this week. Please be on the lookout for that information.
Some of our families have chosen to continue participation in our school instruction through the Kindergarten virtual learning model or the packet learning model for our PreK students. Our virtual platform and our face to face platform will both follow the same scope and sequence and engaging lessons to ensure that your child is being provided identified academic needs. Your child's teacher will provide you with a schedule so that when students are learning virtual the learning coach will know what is required each day. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions concerning the schedule or daily expectations. No matter which model of instruction you have chosen, we are privileged to have the unique opportunity to begin your children's educational path by surrounding them in a warm, caring, safe environment which is full of educational opportunities. I believe that every child can learn, and every child responds best to individualized teaching approaches. Here at HHIECC we not only begin to identify how each child can learn best, but we also begin them on the journey to becoming a lifelong learner.
During this upcoming year, your child's progress will be monitored closely, and he/she will be supported based on identified academic needs. Your child will work independently, and in small and large groups as they develop the social, emotional, and educational skills needed for their future educational path. Please be on the lookout for classroom newsletters that will keep you informed throughout the year.
During this unprecedented time of Covid-19 Beaufort County and HHIECC are dedicated to ensuring the health and safety of our students and staff. A District Re-entry plan has been developed and can be located and reviewed on the District website: beaufort.k12.sc.us. Hilton Head Island Early Childhood Center has also developed a school site re-entry plan that can be located on our school website: https://hhiecc.beaufortschools.net. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to give the school a call at 843-689-0400.
Communication with our school community is important to us. This year we will be using email, phone calls, Texted, our Facebook page and school web page to ensure effective communication. Parents please make sure that the school has a working phone number and email address to ensure you do not miss important information.
We are looking forward to working with your family this year.
Sincerely,
Kim Bratt
