Leadership Weekly
Carroll Magnet Middle School - Week of October 5
What do I need to know this week?
WCPSS Asynchronous Days
In response to concerns expressed by families and educators in regard to the significant amount of screen time being required of students, WCPSS will be implementing one day of asynchronous learning on most weeks from now until the end of the first semester. Students will be provided additional time, flexibility, and space on asynchronous days as live Google Meet sessions driven by our typical daily schedule will not be facilitated. Instead, students will access instructional videos, materials, and resources in Empower, along with relevant activities to complete independently. Teachers may assign live Google Meet sessions to some students in order to provide them with individual and/or small group supplemental instruction. Attendance for each class will be determined by each student's submission of assigned tasks in Empower.
Asynchronous Days:
October 7 & 14
November 18, 23, & 24
December 2, 11, & 16
January 6 & 13
Reopening Plan & Rotation Schedule
On Tuesday, September 29, the Board of Education approved a reopening plan for students who are not already enrolled in the Virtual Academy to return to in-person instruction. These students have been divided into three cohorts and will return to school on a rotating basis beginning at the end of this month, continuing through the end of the first semester. Carroll families whose students are slated to return to in-person instruction will be notified of their assigned cohort on Tuesday, October 6. During remote learning weeks, students will continue to engage in virtual learning.
Coffee and Connect with Ms. MacWilliams
Please join me on Wednesday, October 7 at 10:00 a.m. for a virtual coffee and connect session. If you are interested, but you can't make it, don't stress. I will offer these sessions weekly at varying times to accommodate all of your differing schedules. Please RSVP here for this week. Participants will be provided meeting access information on Wednesday morning via email.
