Eye of the Dragon
John Dewey Academy of Learning, February 22 - 26, 2021
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the John Dewey Academy of Learning is to provide students
with a rigorous project-based curriculum and a safe, caring community in which to learn.
By developing the whole person - academically, professionally and personally -
JDAL will assist students in reaching their full potential.
JDAL Cohorts - Different From The Rest of the District
We have made a couple minor changes to the schedule. Please see below.
As a reminder, students are invited to return to campus starting the week of March 1. Most of the district is dividing cohorts alphabetically by last name. At JDAL, student cohorts were determined based on enrollment in the PBL101/201 Seminar. Students in this seminar are assigned to COHORT A and will attend school on campus on Mondays and Tuesdays, starting March 1.
All other students, including online students, are assigned to COHORT B, which means they attend on campus on Thursdays and Fridays. Online students are not required to attend on campus, but have the option to do so on these days.
2/25/21: ALL STUDENTS WORK VIRTUALLY - NO STUDENTS ON CAMPUS.
2/26/21: ALL STUDENTS WORK VIRTUALLY - NO STUDENTS ON CAMPUS.
All students work asynchronously for most of these days, meaning students will NOT sign in to live sessions with staff. Students should complete their work independently. We do have a few exceptions:
- Mr. Austin's Seminar will meet virtually on Thursday and Friday at 12:15.
- Mr. Ross's Seminar will meet virtually on Thursday and Friday at 1:15.
- Ms. Tiffany's Middle School Leadership Conference will still take place Thursday at 11:30.
- Math Power Hour will still take place Thursday and Friday at 2pm.
- We will hold our End of the Week Celebration Circle on Friday at 3pm.
3/1/21: Cohort A Returns to Campus
3/2/21: Cohort A Returns to Campus
3/4/21: Cohort B Returns to Campus
3/5/21: Cohort B Returns to Campus (This was originally a no students on campus day. We have changed it so students in Cohort B can get two days on campus like Cohort A).
3/15/21 - 3/19/21: SPRING BREAK - SCHOOL CLOSED
- The building will be closed and staff will not be available for phone calls or email.
3/22/21 - 3/26/21: ALL STUDENTS WORK VIRTUALLY - NO STUDENTS ON CAMPUS
- Students are NOT allowed on campus this week. All students should work from home and sign into their live sessions as normal.
*Students who have been attending 4 days per week will continue to attend 4 days per week, except for days identified as NO STUDENTS ON CAMPUS.
If you have questions, or your child's assigned cohort will not work for your family schedule, please contact your child's advisor to discuss options.
Thank you for your support!
