​The district's required health and safety training course, Safe.Strong.Ready​. Employee Safety Training, is now available in GROW, course #11591. All district leadership should register and complete the one-hour course by Friday. Communication to all employees regarding training expectations will be sent later this week. In the meantime, feel free to share this information with your staff so they can register and complete the training.

This will allow homeroom teachers to begin to plan for the FV pacing and weekly schedules, communicate with the specials teachers on master schedules and become familiar with the Canvas templates.

Specials teachers will be reaching out to students/families and the short days will help homeroom teachers work with students and families on getting acclimated to all of the courses and navigation.

Specials teachers will be available for support to homeroom teachers to coordinate schedules/lessons in the special area content.

No Meeting today, moved to August 12.

 
*Note;  the times are estimated engagement time for students -- not synchronous learning times. They will have to estimate the amount of time a student may need to engage in an asynchronous  learning task and build into their weekly schedules and due dates.  Teachers will need permission to understand that this amount of time may not be the exact same for all students as ongoing progress monitoring and assessment will help guide the pace, along with the standards and pacing information.

Schools will assign staff to print the amount needed for their sites from this Finalized Printables folder by grade level and content area.

MDC is aware more paper orders may need to be placed, as well as envelopes for the printables.  Sites can follow safety guidelines for families to pick up the packets or essential staff can be assigned to deliver to the homes.
