EDMS Community COVID19 Update
April 6th, 2020
#ToroFamily
Happy Monday everyone! We hope you are all doing well, staying healthy and at home as much as possible. We know it may not feel like it but we are officially in Spring Break this week and while we know this is not a celebratory time we hope you get to find some time to relax this week. As of today, all MDUSD schools are still scheduled to be closed through May 1st, with students returning on May 4th. As most of you probably heard Governor Newsom's and State Superintendent Tony Thurmond's statements recommending schools close through the remainder of the year, as of now this has not yet been decided by MDUSD. With things changing rapidly in this environment, we will keep you up to date with any new information as it becomes available. If an announcement is made during the week, we will send another update out midweek. We would also encourage you all to check out our social media feeds @edmstoros on Instagram Twitter, and Facebook for the most current information.
For our students, Spring Break will mean that no new lessons, activities, or assignments will be pushed out this week. It would be a great time for students to catch up on work and/or pursue some of there own learning interests. Teachers will also be pushing out a fun EDMS Spring Break Challenge that is completely optional for students. Office hours will not be held during the week of Spring Break. If you haven't already, please be sure to be accessing our instructional resources and classwork through each teacher's individual Google Classroom. A list of all the Google Classroom codes by teacher and period can be found here. If for some reason you have been unable to connect with your teacher(s), please let us know. You can email Mr. Clausen, Ms. Gemma, or Ms. O'Malley. All teachers are available via email as well. We hope you all are staying safe out there!
Please continue to check back often throughout the closure. If you cannot get online due to not having a device please see below about how to check out a Chromebook.
