As was shared out this afternoon, tomorrow (Monday, January 26th) will be a "traditional" snow day due to the ongoing inclement weather. We cannot be certain what the rest of the week will bring (as that has not yet been determined) but in the event a FID (Flexible Instruction Day) Day is scheduled, please note the following guidelines.
- A FID Day is a virtual learning day and it is going to look different and have different learning expectations then a “brick and mortar” day (in more ways than the location).
- Teachers will communicate to learners assignments for the day and all learning will be asynchronous.
- Teachers will communicate out to families/learners when they will be available for support through live Meets for “drop in" questions and clarifications. These meets may be coordinated with teams in order to provide a system of availability throughout the day.
- Attendance will be confirmed through work completion. It is recommended that all work be submitted by 2:35 PM of the FID Day but we recognize these days require flexibility. As a result, all work needs submitted within 3 days of returning from the FID day for a learner to be considered "in attendance" for the FID Day.
As I share this information, I want to conclude with the reality that there may be challenges to these processes. We recognize that if this need to learning arises, your family will also be balancing the needs of your homes and families. Please let us know how we can help in any need. We are here to work through these days with each of you and I shared before, we must be flexible, patient and work as a team.
