Welcome to Byrne Elementary

During Remote learning schools and educators are expected to: 1. Use the Google Education Suite to facilitate remote learning. 2. Provide daily remote learning that meets instructional minute requirements for all content

areas or courses for all students. Ensure all educators are available to provide live video instruction and are synchronously available to students during the entirety of the contract day. 3. Focus on grade-level, standards-aligned instruction and students' social-emotional needs. 4. Submit and monitor student attendance daily. 5. Ensure all students have digital access. 6. Ensure clear communication with families and students. 7. Establish effective structures to facilitate professional development, staff collaboration, planning feedback, and continuous improvement in the remote environment.

Student Expectations

We know that in order for students to be successful, they should follow a consistent schedule and have a quiet work space. This will help them during remote learning, and it will also help them when we transition back to school. It is with these best practices in mind that we have created our Michael M. Byrne Elementary School Remote Learning Expectations.
