Parent Update from View Ridge Middle School 2/25/2021
Thank You
Thank you for your ongoing support in a time of transition. We understand there has been a lot to communicate and figure out as we've shifted schedules and learning models. It certainly has been imperfect, but generally things have gone quite smoothly, and a lot of that is due to your work with your children prepping them for what was coming.
New Schedule Begins Monday
As you likely read in Dr. McCann's letter yesterday, we will be shifting to a six period schedule beginning Monday, March 1. You can find the daily schedules for each student model and cohort on the district's website (see links under "Schedules"). While different schedule approaches have their benefits and drawbacks, we are optimistic that this is an improvement as it creates more frequent, though shorter, teacher contact with students and aligns better with the high school (we have shared staff). We are aware that this adds one more wrinkle to our return to school, and a little more complexity, but after thorough deliberation determined this would be the best way to go.
Safety Protocol Reminders
As we have been back several days, there has been an increase in numbers of students coming to school without having a parent complete a health screener through Skyward. Please build this into your family routines each morning, as this step being skipped by a large number of families poses significant logistical challenges in communicating with all of those parents of students with incomplete screeners. For your reference, our student symptom flow chart is linked below.
