Teachers (as well as administrators and other certified staff members) will be available by email or other digital learning spaces such as Google Classroom and district email. As additional communication requirements may arise, further two way communication methods may be employed, including video conferencing.
In general, teachers will communicate their expectations and daily assignments by 9 am each school day and will be available for communication through 3 pm each day. Teachers will monitor email and other communication with students and parents regularly throughout the school day and provide regular feedback to students. Lessons and learning activities will be available to students "on demand" each day.
Students are expected to participate in learning opportunities and complete assigned activities. If there is difficulty in meeting that expectation, please contact your child's teacher or administrator.
If a teacher is ill or unable to be accessible for distance learning, they will communicate to students and parents.
If a student is unable to participate in distance learning due to illness, please email the teacher accordingly.
Due to the uncertainty of length of time for school closures and the need to provide continuity in education, Commissioner Dr. Miguel Cardona will be addressing standardized assessments (SBAC, NGSS, SAT 11) in the near future. When a decision is made, he will provide superintendents the status of these assessments and recommendations. Dr. Cardona emphasizes that our major focus at this time is to ensure educational continuity and student support.
E-Learning is a new process for all of us. We appreciate everyone's understanding and flexibility during this time.
In the future, we will reach out to students, staff, and parents for feedback so we can assess what went well and what can be improved.
