First Week of school- Orientation week

on August 23, 2020

Reminder the first week of school (8/31-9/3) will be 1/2 days from 8:55-12:00. There will be no school on Friday 9/4 and Monday 9/7 for Labor Day.

Orientation week meeting – I will be meeting with groups of 4 students and their parents to explain our new learning management system Schoology. We will meet in person at the school, I will be giving you the books needed to start school.

If you are uncomfortable with meeting in person or you are working and can’t come then you may pick up the books at a different time and I can send a video explaining the directions.

During Orientation Week we will start each day with a virtual morning meeting at 8:55-9:30. We will be working on getting to know each other and I will explain the work for the day. Then the students will work independently while I meet with families at the school.
