DISTANCE LEARNING FRIDAYS

Parents, next Friday (August 21st) is our first “distance learning day.” Teachers will post assignments for distance learning day at the beginning of the week (every other Friday), so students can complete them at school if they have free time. Note, we will work on these assignments in my class during the week to gain confidence, then we will gradually begin completing , with modifications as needed.  The school will also be open from 8-12 on every other  Friday for students who did not complete any assignments, need computer access, and/or a safe and quiet space to do these assignments. Our online setup is already different from last year, in that all online assignments can be accessed from one portal, Clever. We hope this simplifies and streamlines the process.
