Wednesday Clarification
Hello Dragon Families!
Welcome to week 3 and the first full week of learning this school year! We have been so impressed with how well our students have adapted to virtual learning. It has been wonderful to see every student, every day. As a reminder, students still have school on Wednesday. Instead of meeting with teachers throughout the day, students should work independently. We recommend students maintain their regular daily schedule.
PBL Students
10:00 - noon: project work or small group interventions with advisors
1:00 - 2:00: PBL101/201 seminar work (independent for 301/401 students)
2:00 - 3:00: math (5 topics suggested)
No Advisory Circle on Wednesday
Full-Time Online Students
If needed, students should meet with Mr. Jon to identify a suggested daily schedule. Online learners have the flexibility to complete their coursework throughout the day as long as they continue to make academic progress.
Still Having Technology Problems?
Please remember that Marcia and I are in the building every day to help with any technology issues your child may be having. Please call us at 920.272.7074 so we can help troubleshoot and make sure your child gets the technology needed to continue learning.
Thank you for choosing to be a John Dewey Dragon! We appreciate you, and we believe in you.
With gratitude,
Jen + the JDAL staff
