    The District will begin providing supplementary learning opportunities for students on Wednesday, April 1. The supplementary materials and activities will provide an opportunity for students to review the content and practice the skills they have already been taught. Additionally, our goal with distance learning is to prevent learning loss and more importantly, to re-establish the connections with students, which is the foundation of our work. 

    Teachers will also provide office hours where they can support students and families and answer questions. Each individual teacher will communicate about their availability. 

    Our school will be using  Google Classroom or Seesaw as our platform for distance learning. Please access by clicking the link above. 

    Thank you for your support and understanding. 

    Sincerely,

    Jennifer Robbins

    Principal, Ladd Acres Elementary

    El Distrito comenzará a proporcionar oportunidades de aprendizaje suplementario para los estudiantes el miércoles, 1 de abril. Los materiales y actividades suplementarias brindarán una oportunidad para que los estudiantes revisen el contenido y practiquen las habilidades/destrezas que ya se les han enseñado. Además, nuestro objetivo con el aprendizaje a distancia es evitar la pérdida de aprendizaje y, lo que es más importante, restablecer las conexiones con los estudiantes, que es la base de nuestro trabajo.

    Los maestros también proporcionarán horas de oficina donde pueden apoyar a estudiantes y familias y responder preguntas. Cada maestro se comunicará sobre su disponibilidad.

    Nuestra escuela utilizará Google Classroom  como nuestra plataforma para el aprendizaje a distancia. Acceda haciendo clic en el enlace de arriba.

    Gracias por su apoyo y comprensión.

    Sinceramente, 

     

    Jennifer Robbins

    Directora, Hillsboro School District

    Hello Ladd Acres Families,

    It is with a great deal of mixed emotions that I write to you today to let you know that I will be leaving Ladd Acres Elementary School at the end of this school year to become the new Executive Director of Schools in the Hillsboro School District’s Office for School Performance. In my new role, I will have oversight responsibilities for many elementary schools.

    It is never easy to leave a school community and Ladd Acres has been a very special place for me. It has been my privilege and honor to serve as your principal. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to lead our amazing school, while getting to know all of our Astros and our Astro families. We have accomplished great things together over the past six years, and the staff, students, and families have become like a second family to me. Even though this job represents an opportunity for me to serve our students in a new capacity, please know how much I will miss you all. As an educator for over 28 years, I am called to serve our students, staff, and community. Taking on this new role for the Hillsboro School District is a great honor and I know that the work I will do at district office will trickle back to Ladd Acres in a positive manner, for sure.  

    The District’s chief Human Resources officer, Kona Lew-Williams, will be meeting with staff and families on Thursday, February 21, to gather feedback on the qualities you’d like to see in your next principal prior to the posting and hiring process. The staff meeting will take place in the afternoon, and the parent meeting will take place at 6:30 p.m. in our school library.

    Thank you so much for welcoming me, embracing me, and allowing me to learn and grow with you and your students. These past six years have been amazingly wonderful and I will always cherish my Astro years. I will miss you all and look forward to hearing about and seeing all of the continued hard work from our students, staff and community!

    With warm regards always,

    Francesca Sinapi
    Principal

    Hola familias de Ladd Acres:

    Es con sentimientos encontrados que les escribo hoy para dejarles saber que me voy de la Escuela Primaria Ladd Acres al final de este año escolar para ser la nueva directora ejecutiva de las escuelas en la Oficina para el Desempeño Escolar del Distrito Escolar de Hillsboro. En mi nuevo rol, tendré responsabilidades de supervisión sobre muchas escuelas primarias.

    Nunca es fácil dejar una comunidad escolar y Ladd Acres ha sido un lugar muy especial para mí. Ha sido un privilegio y un honor servir como su directora. Me siento bendecida por haber tenido la oportunidad de liderar nuestra increíble escuela y conocer a todos nuestros estudiantes y familias Astros. Hemos logrado cosas grandiosas juntos en los últimos seis años, y el personal, los estudiantes y las familias se han convertido en una segunda familia para mí. Aunque este trabajo representa una oportunidad para que yo proporcione servicio a nuestros estudiantes en una nueva capacidad, por favor, sepan cuánto los extrañaré a todos. Como educadora por más de 28 años, tengo la responsabilidad de servir a nuestros estudiantes, personal y comunidad. Asumir este nuevo rol en el Distrito Escolar de Hillsboro es un gran honor y sé que el trabajo que haré en la oficina del distrito tendrá un efecto positivo de alguna manera en Ladd Acres, sin duda.  

    La directora ejecutiva de recursos humanos del Distrito, Kona Lew-Williams, se reunirá con el personal y las familias el jueves, 21 de febrero, para obtener comentarios sobre las cualidades que le gustaría que su próximo director tenga antes del proceso de la publicación y contratación. La reunión con el personal se llevará a cabo en la tarde y la reunión con los padres se llevará a cabo a las 6:30 p.m. en la biblioteca de nuestra escuela.

    Muchas gracias por darme la bienvenida, aceptarme y permitirme aprender y crecer con ustedes y con sus estudiantes. Estos últimos seis años han sido increíblemente maravillosos y siempre valoraré mis años en Ladd Acres. ¡Los extrañaré a todos y espero ver y escuchar acerca de todo el trabajo arduo y continuo de nuestros estudiantes, personal y comunidad!

    Con un cordial saludo,

    Francesca Sinapi
    Directora

    Dear Ladd Acres Families,

    It is with great pride and excitement that I am the new Principal of Ladd Acres Elementary School. I am excited to bring my skills as an educational leader to your son’s/daughter’s school and to collaborate with you as a partner in education to ensure your child’s success.

    Along with staff, I will work hard to continue the legacy of success established at Ladd Acres by building strong relationships with parents, students, staff, and community partners.  We will focus on character education initiatives through Positive Behavior Intervention Support, Capturing Kids Hearts, fostering a nurturing safe environment for children, use of data to inform instruction, consistent implementation of newly adopted English Language Arts to increase students’ achievement, by providing exciting and challenging enrichment opportunities for all students.

    The diverse student population at Ladd Acres Elementary School provides everyone with an awareness and appreciation for all cultures. The Ladd Acres staff are passionate, dedicated educators who set high standards of achievement so our young scholars can be successful. We are determined to drive rigorous engagement in literacy, writing, math, and science, and provide individualized opportunities for student growth. To ensure this happens, we collaborate regularly around student learning, challenge one another, and seek to continuously improvement in teaching and learning. We set high expectations for ourselves and our young scholars, and work together in the process of achieving those expectations.

    Thank you for trusting us with the education and caring development of your child. If you have questions or concerns that arise at any time, please do not hesitate to give your child’s teacher or me a call. Family support is a critical link to student achievement. We want to hear from you!
