Inclement Weather Reminders
Staff members are reminded that any inclement weather days will be virtual learning days, so please make sure students are bringing home devices at the end of the day. As indicated on this Digital Learning Days - 2022 FAQ document, all teachers are expected to post assignments in Canvas on inclement weather days (SeeSaw is an acceptable alternative for PK-2).
Additionally, staff members do not need to report to their buildings and may work from home during an inclement weather day. Operations and maintenance staff do need to report to work on inclement weather days. Staff members who have questions about their expectations should see their building administrator or supervisor.
