NSSD112 e-Learning Timeline
March 19th
Message from our Teaching & Learning Department
We appreciate the understanding, support, and feedback as we have just started our first-ever implementation of e-learning with our students. Students this week were provided lessons from our adopted curricular resources that were aligned to grade-level standards. Your 1st through 8th-grade children should have received an email from Educere about the online digital self-paced resource we wrote to you about last night. You can find an information link for Educere here.
Dr. Ryan, the assistant superintendent for Teaching & Learning, will continue to provide updates as we transition from an on-ground school system to a distance learning organization.

All stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet.
