Hafa Adai Parent/Guardian(s),
I hope all is well. The SIFA campus will be opening on Tuesday, October 12, 2021. Our team has worked closely with DPHSS to create the safest environment possible for our students’ return. For this upcoming second quarter, the campus will be operating at 50% capacity while the school waits for additional safety equipment.
When students return, there will be two modes of learning available:
- 100% Virtual (Synchronous instruction)
- Hybrid Cohort (50% on-campus, 50% virtual)
Both learning modes offer live instruction for the whole week.
The updated Virtual learning mode will have synchronous instruction via Google Classroom. Students will follow their regular schedule to access their classes for lectures and assignments.
The Hybrid Cohort learning mode will allow students to be on-campus for part of the week and attend virtually for the remainder. All students on this mode will get to have face-to-face instruction on their scheduled days.
Please note that the above learning modes are intended for the second quarter only. When the school receives additional safety equipment (such as sneeze guards for each student desk), then we may increase on-campus capacity.
To better prepare for the campus reopening, kindly fill out the Q2 Mode of Learning form. Please submit the form no later than Thursday, October 7th, at 5:00pm. If you are unable to complete the Mode of Learning Form, your child will automatically be placed in 100% Virtual (Synchronous Instruction).
If you have any questions, please contact our office at studentsupport@sifalacs.com.
Thank you for your understanding,
J. de Guzman
Principal
