TO: 4th grade parents in Miss Olsen’s class

FROM: Principal Smith

SUBJECT: Miss Olsen is out sick

MESSAGE:

I will be your child’s 4th-grade teacher as Miss Olsen has COVID. As you know, many teachers and staff are sick and we can’t find subs. That is why the counselor is teaching Culinary Arts and the custodian is handling AP Calculus.

Luckily, Miss Olsen left worksheets for your child to complete, and here is the first one. Thanks for your support during this difficult time!
