Chromebook reminders -
As teachers continue to blend technology within instructions, it is imperative for students to charge their chromebooks nightly.
Students are reminded to have earbuds or headphones with them daily as instruction may require use of earbuds during class.
Appropriate use of technology -
In addition, students have a responsibility to appropriately use technology during instruction, group and independent work.
The district does have an acceptable use policy for technology.
Protocol for Contacting Tracing after school hours and on weekends -
When a school receives notification of a possible positive COVID-19 case there may be times particularly when we are notified after school hours or on weekends, that families will be sent an email indicating that their child is to stay home the next school day and that a school nurse will contact the family to discuss the matter and provide guidance on the proces.
