Principal Message
Classroom Disruptions
Parents we understand that having us in your homes for several hours per day is not easy. We want to ensure that all students are getting the best possible learning experiences. Below you will find guidance that will help as we continue to grow into this learning environment.
Guidance for Families
1. Students are asked to mute their computers unless they are the speaker.
2. Assume that if they are in a meeting that you can be seen or heard at anytime.
3. Understand that if what we hear or see from your child's setting become disruptive, they will be temporarily removed from class. They are welcome to return once the disruption is resolved.
4. The teacher will call or Dojo you the nature of the concern.
5. If the concern is not resolved Ms. Campbell will give you a call to think through possible solutions to the disruption.
