Online School Plan

Attendance tracking procedures for all students attending remotely, whether full time or intermittently.

Attendance in grades K-8 will be taken in the morning. If remote learning is necessary, students will be viewing the video during the designated time and there will be a way to record the session. Students will respond utilizing the Google Classroom, Google Meets or Zoom platform at the time of attendance. The school office will call absent students by 10 am in compliance with state law.

Detailed expectations of teachers and other staff working virtually and commitments on delivery of employee support services including, but not limited to, human resource policies and support for employees, professional development opportunities and regular communication from the administration.

Classes will be projected and streamed live. They will also be saved to be viewed later. Since delivery is being completed the same as the regular physical location, all standards, formative assessments, data analysis, etc. will take place to ensure student progress and interventions provided as necessary. Assignments will be sent out to student email addresses so students can complete work. Individual support for those attending virtually will be given during the teacher breaks from class, such as before school, planning, and after school. Professional development opportunities exist with our district professional development days to learn the Google Classroom platform, including best practices for virtual instruction. Regular communication will take place from administration by using our all call system, email, telephone as necessary, and any other means that is preferred by parents to help keep them informed completely of the school and class functions.
