NEW: Focused Learning Activities
Due to the extended closure, we will be implementing a distance learning model for Focused Learning. Teachers will provide 3-5 learning activities each week for each subject area. Students will get credit for participation in these activities. Although this will still be optional, we strongly encourage participation to continue the learning that was taking place at school prior to the closure on March 13. Through participation, students will be able to take advantage of continued learning, but will also have an opportunity to improve current grades in the 5th grading period.
Teachers will send out activities through Google Classroom or through email by the end of next week or before. Follow teacher instructions for completion and submission of student work. Paper packets will also be available for students with no or limited technology access. Until then, please continue utilizing our Instructional Resources linked below.
Please reach out if you have any questions. Email Loren Decuir at or your child's teacher.
