Good morning,
This is a message from Mr. Miele:
1. Tentative schedules for each grade have been posted on our website under the “Parents and Community” tab. Please click on the link for “September Schedules Virtual.”
All schedules are subject to change.
2. Please look on our website for our taped question and answer forum with our staff. We hope to have it up by Thursday night.
3. First Day of School
The first day of school for students is Wednesday, September 9th. Your child will have the opportunity to meet his/her teacher through a Zoom call on the morning of Wednesday, September 9th. The heart of the instruction will take place asynchronously, after your child's initial meeting with his/her teacher. Our goal is for students to engage in literacy, mathematics and social and emotional learning modules, asynchronously, on September 9, 10, 11. These modules will set the stage for the start of the school year, and help support classroom teachers in building necessary routines and structures for learning.
First Day, Schedules, Zoom
Your child will be sent the link to his/her teacher's Google Classroom AND a Zoom link for your child's first meeting with his/her teacher. Your child's first meeting with his/her teacher will take place on the morning of Wednesday, September 9th. Your child will receive his/her schedule, which includes CAMPEL class time, prior to Monday, September 14th. Synchronous instruction begins on Monday, September 14th. Synchronous instruction includes instructional time with the CAMPEL teachers.
Thank you,
Ward School
