To amiskwaciy families and students,
In these uncertain times, we are looking forward to continuing to provide quality learning opportunities for our students. We are offering multiple ways for your child/children to continue growing in their learning. We have created this website to be the main point of contact for you and your child/children.
If you have not yet had the opportunity, please take a moment to provide us with the following information so we can seamlessly continue to assist in learning: Email: (Grade 7) (Grade 8) (Grade 9)
What is your preferred method of contact? (email, phone, etc.)
What number or email address is best?
What type of access to the internet do you and your child/children have at home?
Wifi - (yes or no)
Devices - (phone, ipod, tablet, laptop, etc.)
Is your child able to check in daily via Google Classroom, Google Hangouts, email, etc.?
Administration will be at the school throughout the school days and if you want to get curriculum materials please email you child's teacher or phone the school and indicate when you would like to swing by the school. These packages of work are divided into Week 1, Week 2, and Week 3 with work for all core subjects in each package. Students are not expected to complete one package per week. There is a lot of work in each package, we are asking that students do about an hour of work each day.
Starting on Monday, March 30th, we are asking all students to check in on a daily basis so we can assist with their learning and be a familiar voice in these isolating times.
Staff is offering daily online contact from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm - two teachers (per day) will be available to help answer any questions and/or provide enrichment activities. Students and parents are not limited to this hour to contact staff. Please feel free to email teachers at any time with questions or concerns.
The amiskwaciy Staff
