Welcome to the Shaw VPA Principal's Corner

March 24, 2020

Dear Shaw Families,

This is a difficult time for the world, our country, our schools and our families.  Students I really miss you already!!  Parents too!!  My hope in writing you is to provide helpful information regarding the steps we have taken to ensure your prek-5^th grader continues to learn and thrive despite the current circumstances.  We are asking for your cooperation as we move into uncharted territory.  Our staff is working to make this process as seamless as possible, but there will be bumps along the way.  No plan is perfect and we will all continue to learn through this experience.  As I always say in our morning meetings, we have to help each other grow. This is the time more than ever.  Thank you in advance for your partnership.

Hopefully, you have been able to stop by one of our food sites to pick up a learning packet for enrichment.  If you have any questions please call 314.776.5091
