The KISJ Virtual School daily checklist was developed as an informational and organizational tool for students. Parents can also use this as a guide to support and ensure students virtual learning success. Take a moment to review each item with your child on a weekly basis to reinforce learning expectations and support their emotional well-being.
Learning Tools. These are the materials that students will need to successfully participate in the virtual school learning environment. A dedicated, clean work space with all of their school materials (notebooks, pencils/pens, art supplies, etc.), iPad/MacBook and charger.
Teacher Communication. Teachers will be available to students from 8:00AM to 4:00PM, Monday through Friday. Students should follow their regular school schedule.
Good Habits. Students should check Seesaw or Google Classroom (G5 only) everyday. Complete all tasks assigned within their given time frame. Ask questions and seek clarification when needed. Be respectful, responsible, and kind online. Follow the KISJ Responsible Use of Technology Policy. Practice academic honesty by doing their own work. Take daily lunch and transitional breaks to rest their eyes and rejuvenate their bodies.
Feeling Stressed. Virtual school can be overwhelming. If students are feeling stressed about school or life encourage them to reach out to their Teachers, Counselors, Advisors, or Parents/Guardians.
