As we move to distance learning for all students grades K-12, it is imperative that your students log into Seesaw for K-5 and Microsoft Teams, K12 email, and Edmodo for 6-12. As a school, we are required to keep track of your student's progress and attendance.
Teachers will make all attempts to contact their students using their online platform, email, text or phone call. If a teacher can not get a hold of a particular student, they will be marked absent for the day or the class period.
If you have any other quesetions, please feel free to contact your classroom teacher.
