UPDATE ON RETURN TO IN PERSON LEARNING
We continue to monitor Arapahoe County COVID-19 data closely so we will know when it is safe to resume in-person learning.
Unfortunately, we have not yet seen the data begin to trend in the right direction. The spread of COVID-19 in our community is not slowing or getting under control. This means that we plan to continue Rolling Remote learning through Friday, November 20. The data need to be showing green or yellow for a sustained period before we can return to school. Please remember, there is no school November 23-27 due to Thanksgiving break.
We all want to be back together to learn in-person. We will continue to watch the data and hope that the spread slows so that we can return to in-person learning as soon as possible.
We will continue to provide updates on the data and how it affects our plans to return to in-person learning weekly on Thursdays. Until then, please continue to work safely, follow health guidelines and do your part to slow the spread.

ATTENDANCE MATTERS
Family Expectations with Remote Attendance:
Each day, students will start with a 8am class meeting with their classroom teacher and class. If a student is absent for this meeting, they will be marked absent and your family will be notified. If you know your student will be absent, please call our attendance line: 303-806-2480 OR email Stephanie_harrison@engschools.net.
In order for students to be marked present, they must:
-Participate in the lesson and submit learning assignments
-Turn on camera when asked by teacher (we would like it on during the whole lesson)
-Answer when called on by a teacher
The remote schedule was designed to allow for students to get live instruction from their teacher in the event of having to roll remote, however, we know it will not work for all students and families. To address this, teachers will either record or pre-record lessons for students to access on a time that works for the family. You will see the rolling remote schedules for each class on our website HERE.
If your student misses live classes during the day and they are able to still complete learning on your own time, an absence will be changed to present within 24hrs. Our goal through rolling remote is to continue learning and supporting your students along the way. Lessons will be a continuation of the work they were doing at school and it is important that students keep up with assignments.
Please reach out to our school office with any questions or concerns.
TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT DURING REMOTE LEARNING
send an email to tech@engschools.net with your students' names and a brief description of the problem. You can also call the Tech hotline @ 303-806-6883.
