This is all good news in this very difficult time as we try our best to balance all the challenges and stresses brought about as a result of this COVID 19 pandemic.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now let\u2019s move on to school happenings. We are finding that our hybrid learning students are tremendously engaged when they are here at school, but for the many of them, as well as for many of our e-Classroom students, work at home is not up to an acceptable standard. Now we understand the challenges of learning in the \u201cvirtual\u201d world, but there are too many students who are not even attempting the work and not reaching out to their teachers for help. Believe it or not, midquarters are less than 2 weeks from now, and we probably have a hundred plus students failing multiple subjects, not because of a lack of ability, but rather because of a lack of effort. Parents this is where we need you to provide your children with the oversight needed to ensure their work is at least being attempted. Please make them show you their Schoology and agendas, or trust us that you will not like what you may see in two weeks. If you have questions about Schoology, please reach out to your child\u2019s team leader, counselor or Mrs. Rodriquez in our main office.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, note that this week we will begin sending out notifications regarding the joining of the various clubs and activities we will offer here at school as well as virtually. Please check our daily announcements for information regarding these extra-curricular activities, as we firmly believe a child that is involved outside of the classroom does better in the classroom. Thank you and have a great remainder to your weekend!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Good afternoon Northeast Family and Friends.\u00a0 Here is our Northeast \u201cShout Out\u201d for the week of September 21<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0 We start out by sharing some positive news.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beginning Tuesday, September 22<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">nd<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and through December 31<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, 2020, or until funding expires, we will offer breakfasts and lunches, free of charge, to all students, regardless of their current meal benefit status of paid, free, or reduced.\u00a0 Remember breakfast students must be in the cafeteria prior to 8:00 a.m.\u00a0 Doors open for breakfast at 7:40 a.m.\u00a0 In addition, at our meal distribution sites, beginning tomorrow, Monday, September 21<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, we will provide meals, free of charge, to children age 18 and under who reside in Bethlehem who may be having their education provided virtually in our e-Classrooms or BASD Cyber program.\u00a0 This is all good news in this very difficult time as we try our best to balance all the challenges and stresses brought about as a result of this COVID 19 pandemic.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now let\u2019s move on to school happenings.\u00a0 We are finding that our hybrid learning students are tremendously engaged when they are here at school, but for the many of them, as well as for many of our e-Classroom students, work at home is not up to an acceptable standard.\u00a0 Now we understand the challenges of learning in the \u201cvirtual\u201d world, but there are too many students who are not even attempting the work and not reaching out to their teachers for help.\u00a0 Believe it or not, midquarters are less than 2 weeks from now, and we probably have a hundred plus students failing multiple subjects, not because of a lack of ability, but rather because of a lack of effort. \u00a0 Parents this is where we need you to provide your children with the oversight needed to ensure their work is at least being attempted.\u00a0 Please make them show you their Schoology and agendas, or trust us that you will not like what you may see in two weeks.\u00a0 If you have questions about Schoology, please reach out to your child\u2019s team leader, counselor or Mrs. Rodriquez in our main office.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, note that this week we will begin sending out notifications regarding the joining of the various clubs and activities we will offer here at school as well as virtually.\u00a0 Please check our daily announcements for information regarding these extra-curricular activities, as we firmly believe a child that is involved outside of the classroom does better in the classroom.\u00a0 Thank you and have a great remainder to your weekend!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Buenas tardes Familia y Amigos de Northeast. Aqu\u00ed est\u00e1 nuestro \u201cShout Out\u201d de la semana del 21 de septiembre. Comenzamos compartiendo algunas noticias positivas. A partir del martes 22 de septiembre y hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2020, o hasta que expiren los fondos, ofreceremos desayunos y almuerzos, sin cargo, a todos los estudiantes, independientemente de su estado actual de beneficios de comidas de pago, gratis o reducido. Recuerde que los estudiantes que desayunan deben estar en la cafeter\u00eda antes de las 8:00 a.m. Las puertas se abren para el desayuno a las 7:40 a.m. Adem\u00e1s, en nuestros sitios de distribuci\u00f3n de comidas, a partir de ma\u00f1ana, lunes 21 de septiembre, proporcionaremos comidas, sin cargo, a ni\u00f1os de 18 a\u00f1os o menos que residen en Bethlehem y que pueden recibir su educaci\u00f3n virtualmente en nuestros e-Classrooms o el programa BASD Cyber. Todas estas son buenas noticias en este momento tan dif\u00edcil, ya que hacemos todo lo posible para balancear todos los desaf\u00edos y tensiones provocados como resultado de esta pandemia de COVID 19.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pasemos ahora a los acontecimientos escolares. Descubrimos que nuestros estudiantes de aprendizaje h\u00edbrido est\u00e1n tremendamente comprometidos cuando est\u00e1n aqu\u00ed en la escuela, pero para muchos de ellos, as\u00ed como para muchos de nuestros estudiantes de e-Classroom, el trabajo en casa no est\u00e1 a un nivel aceptable. Ahora entendemos los desaf\u00edos del aprendizaje en el mundo \u201cvirtual\u201d, pero hay demasiados estudiantes que ni siquiera intentan el trabajo y no buscan ayuda de sus maestros. Lo crea o no, los informes intermedios de progreso son en menos de 2 semanas a partir de ahora, y probablemente tengamos m\u00e1s de cien estudiantes reprobando varias materias, no por falta de habilidad, sino por falta de esfuerzo. Padres, aqu\u00ed es donde necesitamos que proporcionen a sus hijos la supervisi\u00f3n necesaria para garantizar que al menos se intente su trabajo. Por favor, haga que le muestren su Schoology y sus agendas, o conf\u00ede en nosotros que no le gustar\u00e1 lo que puede ver en dos semanas. Si tiene preguntas sobre Schoology, comun\u00edquese con el l\u00edder del equipo de su hijo, el consejero o la Sra. Rodr\u00edguez en nuestra oficina principal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finalmente, tenga en cuenta que esta semana comenzaremos a enviar notificaciones con respecto a la participaci\u00f3n en los diversos clubes y actividades que ofreceremos aqu\u00ed en la escuela, as\u00ed como virtualmente. Por favor, consulte nuestros anuncios diarios para obtener informaci\u00f3n sobre estas actividades, ya que creemos firmemente que un ni\u00f1o que participa fuera del sal\u00f3n se desempe\u00f1a mejor en el sal\u00f3n. \u00a1Gracias y que tenga un gran resto de su fin de semana!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good afternoon Northeast Family and Friends.
