New "Quarantine" Day Class ScheduleWe managed a couple of quick pivots successfully this fall when positive COVID-19 tests within our student body required that our school day move to a remote operation temporarily for some or all of our teachers and students.
Class periods were shortened to 50 minutes for those in quarantine. Should quarantine be necessary for some or all of our campus community again, the school day will run from 8:00 a.m. to 3:10 p.m., and classes will follow the normal 90-minute block schedule with the lunch break. Quarantine school days will NOT be shortened days going forward.
Snow Days and Virtual ClassesWe have "budgeted" for two “regular” snow days.
If inclement weather prevents in-person attendance, we will not hold any classes on those first two “snow days.” After those initial two snow days are used, the school day will be online and teachers and students will access classes via Zoom/Google Classroom from remote locations. This allows us to maintain continuity in our classes and meet the state requirements for school days without having to alter our school calendar and extend the school year into the summer.
