REMOTE LEARNING
Students participating in remote learning will be scheduled similarly to students in traditional classrooms. All virtual instruction is facilitated and evaluated by the student's assigned classroom teacher(s).
Galena Park ISD will utilize the Google Classroom platform as the Learning Management System (LMS) for all 3rd-12th grade students.
PreKindergarten-2nd and Special Education teachers will use either SeeSaw or Google Classroom as the Learning Management System (LMS).
All virtual class sessions with students will be conducted in Google Meet.
Students participating in AP and/or Dual Credit classes will be required to work in additional learning management systems applicable to these classes (i.e.- Blackboard, College Board, etc.)
All student assignments will be submitted digitally to the learning management system of the teacher(s). Photos and/or videos of hands-on and paper assignments can be uploaded into the Google Classroom or SeeSaw platforms.
Students should expect to:
Be instructed with the same curriculum presented in the traditional classrooms (same standards and sequence) and have access to the same instructional resources
Be engaged in instructional activities for a minimum of four (4) hours each day

Students working remotely are expected to take all campus- and state-required assessments (ex.- semester exams, STAAR/EOC exams). Performance standards on exams are the same for all students regardless of their learning setting.
