Teacher Expectations

Our goal is to ensure that teachers stay connected digitally during this period of remote learning. We are excited to continue communication and collaboration with our classrooms, while providing opportunities for continued teaching and learning.

Each day, teachers will engage and stay connected with their students through various media and formats, such as but not limited to: video conference, telephone conference, print material, online material, or learning management systems.

Teachers will also:

• share consistent check-in days and times

• share how to log on to online programs

• share office hour times with families so they will know when they are actively monitoring and responding to student work and communication from students and parent (telephone conferences, Zoom, Seesaw, ClassDojo, Google Classroom)

• share when new assignments are posted and due dates for them

• share how much time a day a student should spend on an assignment

• share how students can ask for help

Teachers in Grades 6-8 will:

• provide two weeks worth of lessons/supplemental materials through online content (Canvas, Google Classroom, etc.) or printed packets to reinforce previous instruction

• contact each student in their class at least once per week to ensure they understand the content provided

• be available via a Google Hangout or Zoom meeting at least 2 hours per day for students to contact them for support

Teachers in Grades 9-12 will:
