EXPECTATIONS:
Welcome to our new reality! You have all hopefully received all of the notifications from The Nashua School District regarding its expectations of the delivery of learning opportunities from each of your child's teachers. Teachers have been working tirelessly this week to prepare Google Classrooms, and invite students to join them. Thankfully, your kids are very familiar with the format, as Mr. Santorsa, Mrs. McGuire and Mrs. Simeone have used it from the very beginning of the year. They should plan to see invitations to join the classrooms established by each of their Unified Arts teachers and Special Educators. All of the classroom icons will reside in one area for easy access during the day. You can expect each teacher to post something new, every morning that will require a response. Some of them will be graded as assessments, others just as attendance. You can expect that each of your teachers will diligently provide the best remote learning experiences and assignments that we can possibly create. We, in turn, expect all students to participate, and complete the work. Badger teachers are counting on parents to encourage the more reluctant students to participate. We have to be partners.
ATTENDANCE:
The Administrators of the Nashua School District, as well as the members of the Board of Education expect every teacher to be teaching each day, and every student to be learning every day. In order to prove that this is happening, every student must respond to every teacher, every day. That is the only way that we can take attendance. We will report each day's attendance in X2 at the end of the day. It is imperative that your child reply to whatever post in each Google Classroom. The Google Classes are not connected - so posting attendance in Social Studies does not communicate with Literacy or English or Tech Ed. Each class must be responded to.OFFICE HOURS:
The hours listed below are those times when we will be available for immediate response. We certainly encourage and will accept emails, questions, responses and assignment submissions at any time during the day or night - but we will be at our computers during the hours listed.
