Letter: Hello Parents and Students,

I will also have all this information posted on my web pages as well, https://ca01001129.schoolwires.net/Page/12484 or my Weebly http://mrcooperwh.weebly.com/drivers-ed-2020.html

In order to obtain the pink slip necessary to continue to process of obtaining a driving permit at the California DMV, you must complete these assignments. This class is approved by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). The DMV requires that students complete work in their driver education class. If you do not complete them, you will not receive your pink slip at the end of the semester.
As we navigate through this crisis, I want to support each of you the best that I can. Know that I’m here to support you, so please contact me. I can be reached through email at [email protected] and will do my best to respond in a timely manner. I can also be reached by phone or through Zoom (video chat). If you would like to speak either by phone or Zoom, please email me and I would be happy to arrange this.
The hardships brought by this virus are devastating. We have been robbed of a spring that was supposed to be spent working jobs to pay bills, playing sports in pursuit of championships, cultivating friendships, pursuing relationships, and learning together as a school community. Now we must temporarily distance ourselves in order to protect our own well-being and to preserve the healthcare system’s ability to save lives. Do whatever you can to support your family, neighbors, friends, and teachers by supporting them emotionally. Practice social distancing, but stay social. Text, Snap, FaceTime, TikTok…is this still a thing? Read books. Create memes. Maybe even keep a journal! Younger generations are going to be eager to hear how we got through this time. We are living history, and our brave reactions to this moment will shape the future.
Best regards,
Mr. Cooper
