On Tuesday, November 8th, the MSDWT faculty will be participating in a Professional Development Day – – developing curriculum, sharing and learning best practices, and learning how to better utilize technology in the classroom. Students will not report to school on November 8th.
Students will be required to participate in “At Home” learning activities. Each school will provide students with specific options for participation in these activities.
The “At Home” learning activities will take significantly less time for students to complete than the time they are in attendance on a regular school day. Therefore, the “At Home” learning requirement is not replacing a full instructional day.
The “At Home” learning activities require students to participate online on a digital device such as a tablet or computer. This is not an “eLearning” day but will test our capacity to deliver online instruction. Student participation in the “At Home” learning activities on November 8th is essential to grow our district’s ability to provide online learning opportunities and extend classroom activities. If a student lacks the access to participate in the online portion of the activities, they will not be penalized. Students attending the AYS program will have computer access this day.
Each student will be provided instructions to access and complete the “At Home” learning activities. The activities will be monitored and tracked in order to help us determine the student participation level and Internet access.
Please direct any questions you may have to your building principal. Thank you for supporting this day of “At Home” learning.
