January 2021 Newsletter
Dear Families of Migrant Ed Students,
Welcome to 2021! We at the Migrant Ed Program wish you Happy New Year, and we're looking forward to getting going on supporting all our Migrant Ed Learners this semester. We've got several new things planned, as well as the continuation of many programs that have been well received this year, including: Monthly Science kits, tutoring for all grade levels, school supply support, and books!
Good luck and be well,
Your KPBSD Migrant Ed Team
School Supplies, Books, and Tutoring!!
School Supplies
No matter what type of schooling you're participating in currently (remote, in-person, home school), if you find yourselves in need of school supply items, please feel free to reach out to us, and we'll do our best to send supplies to you. In addition to the regular school supply list, this also includes items like water bottles, backpacks, headphones, face masks, tissues, and hand sanitizers.Books
We've been doing our best to get books into your kids' hands this year. If you have yet to receive self-chosen books this year, please contact us, and we'll make arrangements with you to make sure this happens.
Tutoring - Grades K-12
Migrant Ed has partnered with some amazing local teachers to provide one-on-one virtual tutoring for grades K-12. We'll be featuring some of these folks in our February newsletter. If your student needs help catching up in any subject, or just needs a weekly assignment check-in, please feel free to contact any Migrant Ed Specialist to explore tutoring options for your student. We're here to help!
