We appreciate your understanding as we work to support our remote teachers and our remote learners.
Remote Learning Reminders
- When you are not speaking, please remember to mute your microphone.
- Please be logged on and ready to go when the class begins.
- Please stay in the class for the entire period with your camera on.
- Please ensure you have a learning environment that is distraction free and conducive to learning.
- Please do not talk over your peers.
- Please be patient and respectful as the teacher works to accommodate the needs of all students.
- While remote learners do not have to be in school uniform, please ensure that dress is appropriate for school.
- If you are a parent and you have questions, please reach out to the teacher via email or phone outside of the Google Meets time. This will help us to ensure that we are able to maximize the learning for all students.
Thank you again for all you are doing to make remote learning a success. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to let us know.

Nurse's Notes
Wylie ISD Health Services will be conducting our annual screenings including vision, hearing, risk assessment for type 2 diabetes, and scoliosis. All Kinder, 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th graders, and students new to Wylie ISD will be screened by the campus nurse during the school day (for on-campus learners). Remote learners will have the opportunity to participate in the screening program. We have set up a screening clinic on Wednesdays at the Educational Service Center Annex. If you would like for your remote learner(s) to participate in the screenings, we ask that you sign up for a designated time. Siblings are able to sign up for just one slot.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your campus nurse.
