Online Learning environment expectations

While on Zoom calls

  1. Come prepared to Zoom meetings just as you would come prepared to class.

  2. Use your first and last name when entering a Zoom meeting.

  3. Mute your device when entering the online classroom.

  4. Raise your hand to contribute.

  5. Face the screen during meetings. This shows you are paying attention and listening.

  6. Be on time to all Zoom meetings.

  7. Use the chat box to ask questions.

Note: If you are removed from the Zoom meeting, you will not be allowed back in during that session. A note will be made in your record and your parent will be contacted. While you are offline, you must write a reflection that explains what the issue was to lead up to your removal and a plan to prevent that from happening again. Your reflection must be emailed through School Loop by the end of the class period and you will be responsible for completing any missed work before the next class session.
