What will the library look like with In-Person School?
CAN I COME TO THE LIBRARY?!?!?!
Unfortunately, only teachers and staff are able to come to the library. The library will be unable to accommodate students the first few weeks due to State Testing in the library and we will be working the laptop distribution. The library will only be open to teachers & staff. We will phase in opening the library when possible.
I NEED MY BOOKS?!?!
Yes!!! We want to check out all the books to you. That is our favorite thing in the world to do. It will run a lot like it has during virtual school. We will have Curb-Side running everyday for Virtual students and Delivery to your 4th block class for in-person students. Fill out form to set-up pickup of books!
I NEED SCHOOL SUPPLIES OR PROJECT SUPPLIES?!?!?
Same thing as curbside, fill out the link and we will pull what you need. Printing will not be accessible with student laptops when you return to the building. Currently there is no requirement of printed work from teachers so you should be good there. But if there is a need for printing, just email me and I can work it out!
BUT I NEED HELP? I NEED TO TALK TO YOU?!?!?
Yes!!! Me too!!! I want to talk to you as well, but we will continue to run all Research Questions and Library help questions through our Booking Link. So check this link out and it will show you my availability to help you! Click Here to Book Time!
Student Laptop Distribution
The Why?
Making sure every student has access to the most reliable technology! By simplifying the Fleet of computers in the building and by having one make and model, we can easily manage and teach you how to access all the features with the technology. This is where we can support you with all your technology how to. This is your new textbook and will need to follow you from school to home and back again!
The How?
We will have distribution dates set up to swap out old MNPS devices with the new laptop.
First up will be the In-Person Freshman on their first day back to school. We will keep you posted on the other dates (weather permitting).
