Intermediate

Information for Families:

At the Intermediate School Home Learning is being delivered primarily through Google Classroom. Here they will find the link for the class’s Google Meet and in the classwork section the activities/assignments for the day. Your child should follow their teacher’s daily meet schedule. As parents/guardians, you can help by reviewing assignments in Google Classroom with your child and encourage them to click here for a help video. It is also important that you monitor their use of Chromebooks to help them make good decisions about their use of technology.

Print Resources:

At the start of the new units grade levels will set up times for families to come to the Intermediate to pick up materials for Home Learning. Materials aren’t mandated, but may help your child be more successful at home learning.

There might be other times that materials will be needed and we will communicate with you when the items would be available.
