FULL REMOTE LEARNING
As outlined in the Emergency School Committee meeting on December 8th, and explained in the Superintendent's letter, Leicester High School will temporarily shift to a fully remote, synchronous model. Leicester High School will transition to this fully remote, synchronous model on Sunday evening.
Beginning Monday, a three (3) day, teachers will meet synchronously with cohorts A, B, and C. All remote days will follow an 8-2:30 schedule and the first period of the day will be recorded as the daily attendance. The schedule is linked here.
As four (4) lunch waves are no longer necessary and transitions are shortened, instructional blocks have been extended to 48 minutes. However, in an effort to lessen screen time during virtual classes, teachers have been encouraged to design instruction that will allow students to step away from their screens. During instructional periods, while not providing direct instruction, teachers will remain available to assist students and facilitate lessons. Faculty and staff will ensure that students in cohorts A, B, and C are provided with clear directions regarding access to the remote classrooms. As a friendly reminder, all protocols and expectations for students during virtual learning sessions will be followed.
Attendance will be recorded at the beginning of each period. Students must sign in to all virtual sessions using their school-provided lpsma account. Teachers have been cautioned about allowing individuals with unknown accounts to enter their meetings. Wednesdays will continue to follow the same schedule as the hybrid model to provide for educators common planning time, office hours, and professional development.
