FROM MRS. WILKINS AND MR. BURTON

Kindergarten Registration is in progress! If you are, or if you know of, a Warren family with an incoming kindergarten student (must turn 5 years of age before September 10, 2021) please let Mrs. Hornby know. Mrs. Hornby can be reached at 324.1600 or whornby@helenaschools.org

Also, a reminder that our January and February calendar has been adjusted to ensure both A and B cohorts have the same amount of in-person instructional time (see below).

Thank you for your on-going flexibility as we navigate this year, along with all your efforts to help ensure our Warren family stays healthy and safe! We sure have enjoyed kicking off a new year with our virtual and in-person students.

Warm regards,

Mrs. Wilkins and Mr. Burton

Survey Email

Below is a copy of the email and survey that went out to parents asking questions about to our school planning. Please take a minute to fill out this important survey!

Parents and Families of the Helena Public Schools,

The Helena Public Schools are in the process of considering needed changes to our school plans including which phase is most appropriate for our students, employees, families, and community. As we reach the halfway point in the school year, these reconsiderations are necessary especially in light of updated, national guidance that is specific to schools.

As we work to consider these needed changes, we are asking that you provide us with feedback via the below survey. This family specific information will help us better understand how our decisions to date have impacted your family and children. Additionally, as we approach this second semester, we would value your perceptions as to how we need to navigate this school year going forward. We are asking for a single response from each family.

Survey Link

Please know that this information will be utilized by a committee that will be convening shortly to consider needed changes. This committee will be comprised of parents, employees, and Trustee representatives from our district’s Board. This is expected to be a swift process with implementation anticipated in the forthcoming weeks. Please know that we will share any drafted changes for feedback prior to making final recommendations to the Helena Public Schools Board of Trustees.

Thank you again for your time and feedback.
