EAS Principal's Update
August 7, 2020
A Great First Day
I was able to spend the morning in one of our virtual Kindergarten classrooms. It was special to see all of our wonderful students at school. Our teachers have done a tremendous amount of work preparing for this day and all of them were a bit nervous. I know are families were nervous too. We did it together as a community and we know virtual school is possible.
There may have been a few technology issues...this is to be expected. We will work through these issues over the next few days. Please feel free to contact our office for support with technology. Our teachers need to focus on teaching and learning, and we do not want them to spend their time fixing technology.

Understanding the Virtual Schedule
Virtual Attendance
New State mandates for Distance Learning require that schools take attendance each day in order to ensure students are actively engaged with their learning. When students are in a “virtual classroom” like Zoom or Google Meet, teachers will complete a visual attendance check-in, noting who is present and who is not. It is critical that students sign into their virtual classrooms in time to be counted in the attendance.
We will also be taking attendance by verifying that students complete independent work
assigned by their teacher.
What is Clever?
We are committed to ensuring all of our students have a safe virtual learning experience. For this reason, we have Clever.
If your student has a NHUSD Chromebook, Clever automatically signs in...
If you are not using a NHUSD Chromebook, you can sign into the NHUSD Clever Portal on any device at https://clever.com/in.nhusd.
