Fall Parent/Teacher Conferences
You are able to schedule a separate conference with any of our specials teachers using the link below. Please let us know if you have any questions about this new format.
Inclement Weather
On inclement weather days this winter, there will be no in-person classes for Blended Learners. When school buildings are closed, Blended Learning student instruction will occur remotely via Teams, Schoology, and Edgenuity for children in grades K-12. Pre-school will be cancelled. Instruction will include a morning period of live instruction via Teams (morning meeting, BEAR Time, Advocacy) followed by independent practice like an at-home learning day. For Remote learners, there is no change to the daily instruction.
On days when school buildings are closed, meal pickup will not be available.
As before, decisions will be made regarding school building closure by 5:00 am each morning. When forecasts allow, we will announce the decision the previous evening.
While school buildings are in the hybrid model, we will not use the 2-hour delay option that has been available in the past.
