Students Return To In-Person Learning This Week
Please Complete the Daily COVID Health Screening Form
This week we welcome our "Proud Patriots" back to in-person learning. Please set a reminder on your phone to complete the COVID health screening form each morning your child comes to school. In order to maintain the operations of our school and maximize student instructional time, we need to ensure that only healthy students and staff are coming into our buildings each day. Thank you for your continuing support and communication with us. We share the same goals of keeping our students healthy and learning!

Securly
Supporting Students While Learning Online
Securly Classroom is a tool our teachers have access to that enables them to provide students with over-the-shoulder support. It allows the teacher a look into students’ screens* so that they can guide, monitor, and communicate with students when class is in session and students are signed into their district-provided Google accounts. Teachers can push out links, bring students to specific sites as a group, and guide them on their screens if they are struggling. Students can raise their hand if they have a question with the click of an icon and ask questions in a chat with the teacher if they need one-on-one support.
The program is enabled on all district chromebooks and is also accessible on non-district Chromebooks, Windows and Mac computers during class time when a student is signed into his/her district Google login. As a notification to students and parents that the program is in use, the district will be enabling a message box that will appear on the screen for students when a session is active.
*During a live session, the browser tab that a student has open is visible to teachers, as well as a listing of titles for other tabs. The teacher does not have access to the site or information on any other tabs and cannot navigate to those tabs; nor does the teacher have access to the computer’s desktop, menus or other programs.
