This school year has been very different from any other because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has also made things sort of confusing with school. We wanted to help people best understand what the district's plan is for the middle school. We made an outline of the major things in the plan that affect parents and students below.​

​

Completely Virtual Learning Experience

• Only a few selected groups of students are permitted to come in to the school and work on certain days of the week

• Mondays are student work days with no class Zoom calls

• On Tuesdays through Thursdays, student have Zoom calls for each class block

  • 8:30-9:45 - 1st Block

  • 10:00-11:15 - 2nd Block

  • 11:30-12:30 - LUNCH/Movement Break

  • 12:30-1:45 - Third Block 

  • 2:00-3:15 - Fourth Block 

• Instruction is mainly through class Canvas pages and Zoom calls

 

Hybrid Learning Experience

• Students and guardians are able to choose if the student will go in for face-to-face learning (if they opt out, it would be completely virtual learning)

• Mondays are virtual student work days. They will work on assigned independent work.

• Students will be sorted into two groups (Group A & Group B) by street address and will come into the school according to this schedule: 

  • Group A – Tuesday and Thursday 

  • Group B – Wednesday and Friday

• Block schedule for Tuesdays through Thursdays

  • 9:00-9:40 - Teacher Meetings and Planning

  • 9:40-10:00 - Office Hours Breakfast & Homeroom

  • 10:00-11:21 - First Block

  • 11:25-1:25 - Second Block 

  • 1:29-2:50 - Third Block 

  • 2:54-4:15 - Fourth Block 

• The hybrid learning experience is scheduled to begin in February 2021.
