Core Instruction Guidance and Schedule

All students are expected to engage in instruction daily. Teachers will provide live instruction for their class in Google Meet. They will offer the same instruction in a morning session and an afternoon session per the schedule below. Students only need to attend one session. If your child is unable to engage in live instruction, they must engage in asynchronous (recorded) instruction and submit the required assignments. A recording of instruction will be available as a part of asynchronous instruction.

Encore Guidance and Schedule

All students are expected to engage in Art, Library, Music, and Physical Education. Teachers will provide live instruction for each grade level/class on the days and times indicated below. If your child is unable to engage in live instruction, they must engage in asynchronous instruction and submit the required assignments. A recording of instruction will be available as a part of asynchronous instruction.

Reading, ENL, Speech, Counseling and Related Services

Students who receive support services will continue with the services. Service providers will work with families on the student specific schedule.

Attendance and Engagement

Attendance and active participation is required daily and throughout the week to ensure continuity of learning during temporary and extended school closures.

There are multiple opportunities on a daily basis to show your child’s attendance and participation.

• Attendance is taken daily in live, large or small group times, and also captured in responses to daily posts. If you cannot attend the live large group time, please comment or respond to the recorded instruction to show that your student did watch and participate in that learning activity.
• Submitted responses to questions, activities and projects will be utilized to demonstrate participation and mastery of the learning standards. Please follow the direction from your teacher on how assignments can be submitted.

We thank you for your continued partnership during this challenging time and are available to help with any questions or concerns that you have to support your child during this distance learning learning experience.
