Dear YES Families,
This afternoon we are sending the school iPads home with all of our students. The weather for tomorrow looks questionable and there is the possibility that we may need to have a “remote snow day” on Tuesday. That will be determined in the morning.
The YES Remote Snow Day Plan provides an overview of the schedule if this does come to fruition. On this document, you will note there are three additional optional “helpdesk” support times through Google Meets throughout the afternoon. In addition to the optional Google Meet with their teacher, students can also meet and get support at the following times at these links:
Teacher Helpdesk 12:00 Session Tuesday, March 13
Teacher Helpdesk 1:00 Session Tuesday, March 13
Teacher Helpdesk 2:00 Session Tuesday, March 13
Students will arrive home with their iPads (to access Seesaw & Google Meets) and any other learning materials that teachers send with them. If you would like to log in to Seesaw through a device other than the school iPad this link will provide you with those directions.
Please remember that on a Remote Snow Day we will email the attendance link to you that morning. Please fill out the form to verify that your child is “in school” and engaged in their learning that day.
Unless we have an actual remote snow day, the iPads should stay in the sleeve in their backpack. REMIND your children that the iPads should stay in their backpacks UNLESS we have a remote school day tomorrow. On our next in-person school day the iPads should come back to school with students that morning.
If your child is not in school today to bring their device home, or to pick up the additional learning materials provided by teachers, we can make them available for pickup today in the main office from 2:45- 4;30 PM. Please contact the school if you plan to pick them up and we will have the items ready for you. If you cannot make it here during that window, please contact the main office to make other arrangements.
As always, if you have any questions please let us know. Thanks!
Best,
Ryan Gleason, YES Principal & Molly Kilpatrick, YES Assistant Principal
