I hope this message finds you all doing well. As you may have heard, CCSD will be transitioning to a Hybrid Instructional Model for 6th graders starting on March 22nd and 7th and 8th graders on April 6. We are still receiving guidance on how our plan can be created to best meet the needs of our students, staff, and community. Once we have more definitive information it will be shared with you. Thank you for your continued patience and support while we transition to a Hybrid Model.

Anna Belknap
Principal

If you’ve ever experienced getting your walls dented, you know the pain and struggle of having to try and fix it. The Dent Stoppers, (Ehibor Moseri, Kate Manaj, and Jaclyn Tran) all knew first-hand what it was like to have dents. So, they decided that in this project, their goal was to find a way to stop wall dents. The Dent Stoppers created a website to explain their experiment process for a science project Ecybermission.

Please see the attached letter from Mrs. Belknap, Principal in regards to a policy change for our students taking part in Distance Education. As a school, we feel as distance education continues it is essential that we know our students are engaged in their direct instruction and therefore that is why we are requiring our students to now turn their cameras on during direct instruction with their teachers. Students will be able to use any of the available backgrounds or blurring technology available through Google Meet. Parents who do not want their child to turn on their camera must email Mr. Taylor or any member of the administration from their email of record stating they would like their student to opt-out. If you have any questions regarding this policy change, please email any member of the school administration.

We have 2 new after-school activities that are starting here at Hyde Park.

Virtual Homework Club
Is canvas making you blue?  Is google classroom confusing? If so we can help.  We will have a homework club every Thursday (except holidays of course) from 3:15- 4:15.  We will explain how to use canvas and even help you with your assignments if you get confused.  In this age of virtual learning, it's important that we all help each other learn in the best ways possible. If you have questions, please email Mr. Burton at [email protected]

Art Club members experience and explore new media and practice techniques to create their own original artwork and exchange creative ideas. The art club is a great place to make new friends and develop creativity in a fun supportive atmosphere. We will be working with abstract art, portraits, and anything you want to explore.

Purpose: Art Club provides an opportunity for interested students to meet after school to work on special art projects and share art experiences with their peers.

How to Join: Email Ms. Morrison at [email protected]
