General Information

During this unusual school closure, we realize that your family is managing a lot. We also recognize that you are committed to your child’s education and maybe looking for ways to support your child’s learning. Therefore, we are providing some optional activities that you can use with your student(s) over the period of time in which school is closed. We encourage you to utilize these activities to help keep your child in a mode for learning and ready for when schools reopen.

While these activities are not required, we'd love for you to share with us any education-related learning activities you and your child have participated in during the school closure. Here are a few ways you can share them with us:
- Tweet us @cape_sd
- Tag us on Facebook @CapeHenlopenSchools
- Email photos to communications@cape.k12.de.u
