Virtual Learning: Students
David T. Howard Middle School
What's expected of students?
The administrative staff, counselors, and coaches will still offer support via office hours. If students or parents have specific tech concerns, they can reach out to Mrs. Powe via email or the office number listed below. All forms of communication will be checked frequently each day.
Google Classroom
Google Classroom makes teaching more productive and meaningful by streamlining assignments, boosting collaboration, and fostering communication. Educators can create classes, distribute assignments, send feedback, and see everything in one place. Classroom also seamlessly integrates with other Google tools like Google Docs and Drive.
