Remote Learning

Our remote learning plan has been devised to ensure that our students continue to receive the best possible education, rooted in the gospel values of Christ. While we understand our remote learning will never replace the in-person environment students have with their caring teachers, it will allow students to continue to make academic progress while building upon their relationships with their friends and trusted teachers as they come together in a new way. We still strive to prepare our students to be responsible, faith-filled, contributing members of society.

All teachers will update their class page links found above. Please refer to these pages as well as email communication from your child’s teacher for more detailed information. It is through these means that you will discover our unique remote learning plans.

At home, all students will be expected to put forth their best effort every day, Monday – Friday. In the morning, students will need to check their class links for any new/additional information. Then they should work to complete all assignments. If questions arise, students and their families should not hesitate to contact the teachers for additional guidance and clarification.

A typical remote learning lesson may differ from class to class. Teachers will be utilizing a variety of techniques to reach all learners. Examples include lessons posted through Google Classroom, using Google Drive, real time video instruction, pre-recorded lessons and messages, Google Meet, Zoom, and more!

• The lower grade teachers are using a combination of paper packets, recorded video lessons, Google classroom, and a few other approaches to deliver instruction, provide assignments, and engage with their students during the remote learning. More details can be found on the class link.

• Middle School teachers and students are following a set schedule that includes a weekly face-to-face interaction via video/audio conference and assignments in Google classroom. More details can be found on the class link.

The remote learning platforms we will utilize are free to our families. We will support you every step of the way to make this transition as seamless as possible.
