Covid-19 Update:
Homeschool Fair Officially Postponed until 2021
Thank you to all of those who answered our survey. There was a really good response to attempting to hold the Fair so I explored every option. In the end, my phone call with a San Bernardino Covid-19 hotline representative made the decision for me. "A private school can currently do anything they want on their own grounds except hold a public gathering," I was told. The last thing I would want is for families to come, only to have the Fair shut down in progress.Ontario Christian Schools was holding out hope along with us, that the restrictions would relax enough in time to hold the Fair this year, and I thank them as well for their support.
They have very graciously extended our payment in full for 2021 so that is not a concern.
Thank you to those that offered alternative ideas on our Facebook poll. Please feel free to post pictures of your student's projects on our Facebook event page and we'll all comment and affirm them for the hard work they've done. My heart breaks for the kids who have been looking forward to this event and will be saddened to miss it this year. For students who created masterpieces to sell at a student booth, they can also post on the event page and make private arrangements with families who might want to purchase their crafts, for payment and delivery.
For any of our families that have been personally affected by this crisis either through illness or financial hardship, please know that we are praying for you, that God will sustain you and bring you through this hardship. It is my hope that all of us will redeem this time in whatever way God has called each of us to do and we will be stronger because of it.
Lord willing, we will see you all on Memorial Day, May 31, 2021 for the
31st Annual Homeschool Fair!
May God bless you and keep you all!
