Gateway Stem Academy Families:

Thank you for your on-going support to your students and GSA. The purpose of this message is to share an upcoming shift in our school’s learning models due to the changing data of sickness in the county and state. The rapid statewide increase in COVID-19 is beginning to show up locally. Although our school’s safety strategies have been effective, the projected trend is that case rates will grow significantly.

Here is the plan for the next 3 weeks to help your family prepare:

Grades K-6: in-person and hybrid learning models

  • Nov 23​rd – December 4th will be distance learning days for ALL students.
  • November 23​ , November 24​ , and November 25​ are distance learning days
  • There is no school for these students on Thursday, Nov. 26, and Friday, November​ 27.
  • Monday, November 30​ through Friday, December 4​ will be distance learning for ALL students

 

Current Distance learning students

  • The transition to distance learning does not affect students currently doing distance learning.
  • Distance learning students will not have school on Nov. 26​ and 27th
  • Tutoring may be available from 5:00pm – 6:30pm on Mondays, Tuesdays.

 

In the coming week, your teacher will communicate additional details about this transition. Teachers and staff are committed to ensuring the move to distance learning goes well. Gateway Stem Academy is focused on our students’ success.

Looking ahead, the tentative plan is to return to in-person learning (grades K-3rd) and hybrid learning (grades 4-6) on December 7​ if the COVID data shows it is safe to bring students back to school. Given the changing nature of this pandemic, we will continue to evaluate GSA return date as appropriate. Students that are currently distance learners, will continue to do their school work at home. As we have done all along, we will monitor data ahead of a transition, provide advance communication and support our students and staff.

 

Regards,
Abdiaziz Farah, Gateway STEM Academy Director, and Ed Fellows, Gateway STEM Academy Principal
