August 12-21, 2020 will be a “Soft Start” to the school year.
This time will be used to:
1) teach students appropriate procedures and protocols that will keep them safe during the pandemic, and
2) issue ChromeBooks and provide orientation and direct instruction on how to access and effectively utilize the virtual classroom.
Also, teachers will communicate with their students regarding the schedule for full virtual class meetings and small group instruction, as well as, administer diagnostic exams. This investment of time on the front end will help to ensure a better start to the school year, regardless if the student is full virtual or attending school in our buildings.
This “soft start” plan will allow students to have time with their teachers to adjust to the new procedures and programs prior to the hard start to school on August 24.
