Good evening parents and families,

I hope that everyone had an enjoyable weekend. I'm happy to share that our teachers and administration have been working through the weekend on the development of a plan that will lead to more structured learning for students that will begin to take shape this week with new modules scheduled for Monday, April 6th. Tomorrow each Principal will be meeting with the leadership team at each school, comprised of general education and special education teachers, in order to thoughtfully finalize the schedule for students and to answer any remaining questions.

For tomorrow we ask that students continue to explore the enrichment resources that have been shared. My hope is to have some additional structured guidance on Tuesday for the remainder of this week and then a distinct plan in place for our new remote learning schedule for Monday, April 6th.
This week I will be sharing some additional guidance for parents and families. Most importantly, I want to assure you that North Reading students will continue to receive the top level education that they are accustomed to receive from the very best teachers that the Commonwealth has to offer. I am in constant communication with local Superintendents and I am confident that we are on par with all other districts and that our remote learning experience will be designed with the best interest of North Reading students and families in mind and we will continue our "pursuit of excellence" in this new and exciting format.

It is also important to me that I clarify that we are not attempting to replicate school and instead are designing new remote learning opportunities for students that will be guided and structured by our teachers and administrators. Technology will continue to be a tool for us to use as we explore remote learning but it is not the only tool that our teachers will employ. I wish to thank our North Reading Educator Association union representatives for working so closely with us on this plan.
We have successfully distributed technology devices to those in need and I ask anyone who has not completed this form (or wishes to change their responses)to complete this brief online survey as soon as possible.

Our food services program continues to prepare meals for those who need them and if you need to complete or update that form you may do so here.

I wish you the best as we enter into our third full week of school closure and continue to
be available to you for any questions or concerns at any time at pdaly@nrpsk12.org or 978-664-9557.

Thank you,

Dr. Daly
