“We miss you. We love you. Stay safe, Lee Lions.”
This was plastered on the windows of Walter Lee elementary and blasted out in a tweet - a message for the community as the school grapples with how to teach its students without letting them come into the building.
This was the first week back after spring break and teachers were reaching out to their students across the school district as they prepare to start teaching them remotely over the next few weeks because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
