When eLearning Happens
When eLearning Happens
eLearning will only happen if it’s safe at home and students and teachers can access their devices and the internet. If the weather makes that difficult, eLearning won’t take place that day. Instead, it will be rescheduled for a make-up day when conditions are better.
