Stay Engaged in Learning
Dear High School Parents/Guardians,
Auburn School District schools are closed.
Auburn teachers build on each student's strengths, interests, and needs and use this knowledge to positively impact learning. You can expect regular communication with your child's teacher around student progress in the activities listed in the Continuous Learning Plan outlined below for High School students.
Families must continue to maintain a daily routine during school closures; be mindful of balancing think time, work time and play time for health and well being. This may include getting breakfast and lunch from your local site. To find out where breakfast and lunch are being served, click here.
Daily Instructional Time for Tasks and Activities: 3 total hours a day for all classes.
Recommend time:
30 minutes for each class - high school
After 15 minutes, strongly recommend students get up to move.
Daily instructional time can include:
Direct Instruction
Recorded lectures
Handouts or packet work
Discussion boards
Online resources
Content-based activities with appropriate supports for ELs
Key Standards: Using OSPI Anchor Standards, Auburn School District Power Standards and OSPI “Enduring Concepts”, Departments will work collaboratively to determine what essential learnings are for their courses.
Gradebook: Students who are actively engaged during closure and continue to work through assignments provided by their teacher through the end of the school year will earn a letter grade and 0.5 credits per class. In consultation with their counselor, individual students may transition to a Pass/No Credit option by course.
