Anticipated Snow/Weather Day—Virtual Learning Day
When we are anticipating a significant snowfall or weather event with slick roads, please plan for a Virtual Learning Day instead of a cancellation of school.
• Take your laptop home so you are able to remotely teach on this virtual day.
• Teachers, if you are able to make it to the building, you are welcome to do that. We do not want anyone to be put at risk on the roads.
• The day before in the classroom, remind students to take their Chromebooks home with them so they can attend class virtually.
• Communicate with your students what time to log on if there is a Virtual Learning Day because of weather.
• Plan what appropriate lesson(s) you would do and likely a lesson as continuation of daily class since everyone has some online learners.
• One option could be to send home ‘school closure’ work in hard copy form as that counts for attendance (once it is completed) as well.
• Remind students to check their school email, SeeSaw, or Google Classroom for directions and lessons.
