Dear Mead School ELC Families,

We hope that you and your families are doing well. As you are aware, we opened our centers to "essential personnel" on Monday, and thus far, it's been smooth sailing. It feels very good to return to a small-scale sense of normalcy.

If you haven't already heard from someone in your child's center, you will be shortly. Our HCDs and Curriculum Teachers have been hard at work pulling together resources for you to use with your children at home. Please also use this link to access the "All About Kids" resources that we've been compiling on The Mead School website. You'll find the drop down if you scroll down the page to the bottom right-hand side.

We are reaching out today to ask you to provide an update on your family's health status, as well as your current thinking on your need for childcare, even as soon as Monday, March 30th. By 10:00 am tomorrow (Wednesday, March 25), we ask that you please complete our NEW Survey Monkey survey attached here. As we consider opening more broadly in the very near future, your responses will inform our next steps.

Thank you all for the kind messages and encouragement you've shared as we've navigated this shifting situation. We are grateful for your understanding and partnership.

Our sincere and kind regards,

Robyn and Stephanie
