  • Asynchronous attendance will be taken through a virtual attendance question that is posted in Google Classroom on Tuesday and Thursday of each week.

  • Students will be marked present if they respond to the daily attendance question by 11:59 pm on that day.

  • Contact with your parent/guardian may be made to determine the reason(s) for absence and needs or barriers you may have to participate in required lessons.

  • We never take a picture or record anyone without permission.

  • Video is optional: (you may leave your screen off).

  • When someone is speaking please give them your full attention.
