April 2026 A-F Calendar
Your child’s teacher will be sharing with them their specific plans and assignments before the end of the week. The general expectation is as follows:
Record their Attendance: Students will be provided a link for each of their teachers to record their attendance for the day. Students will need to follow this link to sign-in to class between 8am and 2pm on both Monday and Tuesday. Teachers will record the daily attendance by 3pm each day.
If a student/family does not have access to an internet enabled device during that time, they should return completed assignments upon their return to school on April 6th. Teachers will have the ability to correct attendance based on student work on that Monday (4/6).
Complete Class Assignments: Teachers will provide assignments that can be completely asynchronously. Teachers will provide access to these assignments before students leave for vacation and provide any explanation or clarification needed before we move to remote instruction. Assignment delivery will vary by teacher (ex. paper-based vs. Schoology). Assignments should be completed and turned in by the time student’s return to class on April 6th.
Teachers will provide links to their attendance and assignment platforms to the school this week. Before the end of the week the school will post on the website and send out by parent email a comprehensive list of all teacher links should your child not receive them in school.
Thank you for your patience and flexibility!
