Good evening,

I’m sure you have received the One Call reminding you of our Remote Practice Day on Monday, November 9th. The goal is to practice and iron out problems in the events that we would have to go temporarily remote at some point. Below are the details if we were to have a Remote Day or Remote period of learning for 1-2 weeks or longer. The building will be closed on Monday, but we are available to help and assist as needed via email.

Enjoy your weekend!

Dan Moore, Building Principal

Remote Notes/Clarifications:

• Remote days are “Academic Days” and work WILL be assigned that will happen outside of the states LIVE time that will constitute the hours needed for an entire school day.

• *While there is no requirement that this work be completed during the “open” school time (i.e., 11:00 - 3:00 for Elementary or 8:00 - 11:00 for Secondary) the work will need to be completed nonetheless. This means that students will be expected to complete the work and submitted at the time assigned by their teacher.

• Students will have work assigned that will help meet requirements of a complete school day

• Secondary students will need to check their “Google Classrooms/Classes” of the classes they did not have “LIVE” and complete the work for that class.
