All 3rd-5th grade students in Bend-La Pine have been issued iPads. Though it is not common practice to send these devices home, in the event advance notice is given or a prolonged closure seem possible, these tools will be available for home use and be an important resource for continuity of instruction. Hard cover, traditional materials are also available for families who prefer or need to access learning in this way.

During site closures, it will be important that 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students work with a parent to check their gmail and other learning platforms used in class (such as Google Classroom and SeeSaw) for regular announcements and updates from their teachers about learning tasks and expectations. Teachers will also routinely communicate with parents via ParentVue emails. Families can also reference the "Tips for Success" page on this site, and reach out to their school with any questions or concerns.
