May 29th What are we doing?

Hello Division 1 Parents and Students!

Usually this post is available earlier.
The school district is monitoring student participation in online activities each week. Please make sure that your child reads and reacts to the daily announcements in TEAMS.  Also continue to post your at home learning projects on Freshgrade.  It is great to see all the cool things students are doing.

May 25th What are we doing today?

Hello Division 1 Parents and Students!

Our digital skills challenge for this week will be attaching an assignment in TEAMS.  I sense your excitment :/  I have 2 High School students -- sometimes this is super easy & sometimes TEAMS glitches - so please do not panic....STUDENTS, you are the ones who need to figure this out because as a parent it makes me nuts being asked to help attach things in a stressed out frenzy.  So, take a deep breath, and ask MRS.ELIE to help you. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!

Also our small group call schedule is changed for this week.  I am hoping to keep it the same for the month of June, however, it will be reliant on how many people in the school are using the internet at the same time....because school internet :/
