Parents and Guardians,

Each school in our district has created blended learning opportunities and resources for students to remain engaged during this time away from campus. Many schools offer live or recorded instruction through Zoom, Loom, FlipGrid, or YouTube. Online lessons and activities are sometimes provided through Google Classroom or email. You are encouraged to follow guidance from the administration and teachers from your child's school when planning the activities and lessons to be completed each day. This document includes many resources available to our students. Feel free to use these resources to compliment or enrich, not to replace, what is being assigned by the school.

Thank you for supporting your students in their time away from us.
