Weekly Contact
All Online Program students need to make weekly two-way contact with their conferencing teacher. Students can connect with their teacher via text, phone, Zoom, or email.
If a student does not make weekly contact they will be marked absent on Monday for the previous week.
Weekly contact is a requirement of our school in addition to completing online course work. If a student is unable to make contact for an entire week due to illness please email the OCEAN attendance to excuse the absence. oceanattendance@ptschools.org
Healthy Youth Survey
In October our students in grades 6-12 will be joining other Washington state students in participating in the Healthy Youth Survey. The survey is anonymous and optional, but we highly encourage students to participate as the goal is to provide us with vital information on our student population right here at OCEAN. Questions cover topics such as substance use, mental health, and well-being. The results will determine what additional supports our students are needing and drive our decisions for prevention, intervention, and education lessons regarding healthy living and healthy choices to help your students grow in a positive way. Our school receives critical funding and outside services based on results from this survey.
For any families who are interested, please schedule your appointment to learn more about the important questions that will be asked. For any additional questions, please contact the school counselor, Emily Eldridge, eeldridge@ptschools.org.
