Ask Dr. B. Good

Today’s podcast will be in both languages - English and Spanish. The need for it seems to be great since we have parents who can’t decide whether to have in school or in home instruction.
So today we will talk about how to know when your family is ready for in school instruction.
The first half of the show been English in the second half will be in Spanish. Put any questions in the chat or comment box below, please!

Today we will be doing our podcast totally in Spanish! We’re doing that to make sure that all of our parents have a chance to hear about some of the things we talked about last week like the upcoming remote learning curriculum, the parent survey, asynchronous learning/synchronous learning, etc.
See how much you understand of the podcast as you practice your Spanish with us! Listen for the upcoming online parent meeting nights next week.

Welcome back to the Ask Dr. B. Good podcast where we try to answer a lot of the questions that are going on in our Legacy world and sometimes outside of our Legacy world.
Today we’re going to concentrate on going through the reopening of school manual that every district in Texas had to put together.
We want to go through it even though it’s about 28 pages because it answers a lot of the questions that parents have about the school safety protocols being put into place and can help with the decision as to whether parents want to bring their kids back to school or not (when that decision is finally allowed).
We also will be placing this podcast on the Legacy website so that it’s available to you to listen to at your leisure.
Please let us know if there any questions remaining about our school reopening plan after you have listen to the podcast. Ease write comments and let us know if we have done a good job in reassuring you that we have our buildings prepared to receive children and staff.
Thank you!

Today, we will start preparing for the return to school by having on our district RN, Ms. Ortiz and a newcomer to Legacy Laura Montoya, our new bilingual elementary counselor, for Mesquite.
