Principal's Update
From Dr. Duffy, James Monroe High School
Update for November 13, 2020
Reminders
I have just a few short reminders this week. First, remember the new schedule for virtual class meetings: Mondays and Tuesdays are A days, and Thursdays and Fridays are B days. This information is posted on our webpage. We are taking attendance at the virtual class meetings, but student absences will not count against them if they continue to check in daily their homeroom teacher.
Class Meeting Schedule
As noted above, virtual class meetings will coincide with face-to-face class meetings. One important change from past experience is that Monday and Tuesdays are always A days, and Thursdays and Fridays are always B days. This practice supports our effort to maintain a healthy building. It probably also helps students to remember which days are A days and B days. Finally, this schedule also allows for teachers to connect lessons from one day to the next.

Spirit Week
The SCA invites you to our spirit week starting Monday, November 16th. All events will be virtual and hosted by your SCA officers. Each day will include a different challenge. Check out our webpage or your homeroom course in canvas for more details. Join us for a drive in movie on Friday by the tennis courts at 7:00 pm
Conclusion
Well that’s it for now, JM. Please take care to do all you can to wear a mask in public, follow practices of social distancing, and wash your hands frequently. Everyone has a role to play to contribute to the over-all public health of our community.
Go Jackets!
