Hello Parents and Families,
Thank you for your support and patience as we get ready for our first days of "remote learning."
Teachers are very eager to "see" students in their online classes. We all miss seeing our students!!
Every day at 11:00 am, students will check in with their period 5 teacher through Zoom video chat. ELA students, you can check in with your homeroom teacher. For those of you who are in AVID 7 during period 5, you can check in with either or both teachers.
If students do not have Zoom access, they can send an email to their period 5 teacher as the check in during this time period (11:00--11:30 am).
This process will help us take attendance for the day and also give some individual interaction to each student.
The two tools students will need during this remote learning time are their chromebook or other computer/device and internet access.
Below, you will see a recommended schedule for students to follow. Our goal is to keep students in charge of their own learning in collaboration with their teachers. If at any time, you or your child has a question, there are resources listed on this learning schedule. Please reach out and we will respond.
~Annessa Hart, Principal
