Family & Student Handbook
LA Unified has developed a family and student handbook which is meant to be a guide to help parents and students with information they will need in the days leading up to and through the first weeks of school. In addition to a more detailed calendar, there are also sample schedules, answers to many common questions & helpful recommendations for how to support student learning virtually.
Positive Behavior Practices During Virtual Learning
Creating a safe and welcoming environment for students, staff, parents and community members is among one of our highest priorities. Ensuring that this takes place requires that everyone demonstrates behavior that is safe, responsible, respectful and restorative. Given that practice makes better, introducing, explaining and reviewing what being safe, responsible, respectful and restorative looks and sounds like in various areas of our school community is often one of the first things that teachers and administrative teams introduce to students at the beginning of the year. While the platform for instruction has changed, the expectations remain in place, albeit they will look and sound a bit different. As our partners, we are looking to you, our parents/guardians to help our school community to reinforce the importance of these practices to your child(ren). Each school’s descriptors may vary but they all get to the heart of what it means to be a responsible and respectful digital citizen that engages in safe and sound behavior while online.
