Please note that Distance Learning begins Wednesday 5/18. Please read letter below from me.

Dear Students,

We are about to begin a new learning adventure. I will miss teaching you directly in class, but this new distance learning experience is one that we are all going through together. Anytime you have questions about anything that I can help you understand or clarify, please feel free to email at any time. I will respond M-F during the daylight hours and maybe during evenings and on weekends as well or as needed.

As for our class’ process, Google classroom will be the main way to receive information, assignments, and post your work. Zoom will be open during the class assigned session for immediate questions, but if you miss this session, Google classroom will have everything you need.

Each assignment will be posted the night before your next class, so you can look at it early if you choose.

Attached is the letter that went out to your families from the district office in case your homes did not receive them. This letter gives you your class schedule.

Good luck and best wishes during the next few weeks,

Ms. Moses
