Online Learning

District teachers and staff are working to provide meaningful learning experiences for all students. If your family has a computer device(s) and internet your child can use, you are set. If not, watch for notices on how to get digital devices and, if needed, free options for getting internet. Regular online instruction begins on Wed., March 18. Here are some other notes:

Teachers are preparing for online instruction on Monday and Tuesday. On these days, we have some other activities, by grade level, that can provide fun, relevant learning for your children! Link here: https://tinyurl.com/rgzetj3

Students will manage their work from a digital learning platform; in elementary, Google Classroom, and in secondary, Canvas. Many students are already accustomed to using these platforms and are already doing schoolwork via these digital Learning Management Systems. To prepare, ask your child if they use one of these tools and have them show you how they log in. If your child is not yet familiar with these tools, you and they will receive instructions from their teacher.
