Because of the timing of the storm, and the impact on the safety of travel, our plan is to implement a
SAL (Structured Alternative Learning) Day
for Kindergarten through Grade 8 students on Thursday, Dec 17th.
(please see below for SAL details)
It is our intention to keep an academic finish to 2020!
Students were sent home with supplies, books and materials that will help them to function academically in the home setting.
What does this mean?
- A SAL Day is initiated so that students and teachers avoid academic interruption, as well as the possibility of having to make up any snow days. Students are expected to engage in at least a half-day of school, and complete all given assignments.
What should we expect?
- Kindergarten through Grade 5 teachers will be posting a schedule for the day in their Google classroom by 8am. Students will complete the assigned tasks and will have a virtual check-in with their teacher at some point during the day for attendance purposes, as well as to provide any support and answer questions.
- Middle School students will be expected to engage in a four period schedule which is attached here for your reference.
What else do we need to know?
- Google meet attendance is mandatory, as it is our means of taking attendance, in addition to the submission of completed work.
- School uniform is not required on SAL Days.
Thank you for your continued support and patience
as we continue to provide a quality education for our students!
