Remote Learning School Schedule

When you see an online class time schedule, it does not mean that the students will be watching a screen the entire class period. It means that a student will join the class at a particular time. There are many options teachers will have such as a 10 to 20 minute lesson, problem solving, tutorials, and projects all while the camera is on just like class. Students are not watching their teachers the entire time during in-person instruction, they are learning among themselves. The camera may be on; however, students should be thinking, solving, creating, and learning. Screen time will be based on the grade level. Updated classroom distance learning schedules (virtual meets are subject to change) are on School Speak.

School begins at 8:10 A.M. and ends at 2:45 P.M.* (Excluding Kindergarten which will be dismissed at 1pm until Thursday, September 3, 2020).
