- Students should keep video on whenever possible and comfortable, but keep themselves muted while the teacher is delivering instruction.
- Showing PRIDE (Punctual, Respectful, Integrity, Dedication and Excellence) is expected for all Zoom meetings.
- Adhere to dress code, no revealing skin on camera
- Students should respond to all prompts to engage during instruction.
Active Reading strategies used throughout all courses:
Rereading for clarification

REMEMBER:
S - Show up for online learning classes and submit all assigned work.
P - Participate with the goal of mastering the learning standards.
A - Advocate for yourself when you need support. Communicate through DPS approved methods.
