☎️ BPS Family Helpline for any level of support! 617-635-8873
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Thank you to everyone who has completed the parent distance learning survey. Since the Lilla G. Frederick Pilot Middle School is currently closed due to the COVID-19 virus, protocols are being created to support the learning process using a distance learning model. The Frederick and Boston Public Schools will have plans in place to ensure that student learning continues throughout the duration of a school closure. It will be important that there are clear and consistent lines of communication between teachers, families, and students during this time, so we’ve outlined below what you can expect.
You can expect to receive communication in the following ways from the school primarily via:
Administration:
The principal will email families at least one time per week (or more as needed) updating you on any changes and sending out reminders regarding distance learning. If you have not received any email communication, please reach out to us at principal@lgfnet.org as soon as possible so that we can update your email address.
Teachers:
Teachers will add assignments on Google Classroom for each day Monday - Friday and will contact parents in a timely manner if students are not submitting their assignments to determine reasons why and help troubleshoot. Teachers will email a weekly recap being sure to reference what’s to come in the following week(s).
Both:
Both administration and teachers will utilize the school’s social media (Instagram, Facebook) and our internal communication system, Class Dojo, to communicate important messages to parents and to share the learning taking place via distance learning. If you are not connected to your child's Class Dojo account, please email your child's teacher or reach out to me at principal@lgfnet.org.
At a minimum, we would expect that all of our students would spend the following amount of time on each subject daily:
English Language Art: 45 minutes
Math: 45 minutes
Social Studies: 30 minutes
Science: 45 minutes
Reading: 30 minutes
Art & Music: 30 minutes
Health, Physical Education & Yoga: 30 minutes
Your child’s teacher will be emailing you with specific details regarding specific grade-level expectations. We will need to work together in order to make this a successful experience for our students. Thank you for your flexibility and patience during this time!
Regards,
Principal Lugira
