If in quarantine- Learning continues online
Families-
Isolation- means a positive Covid test and the assumption the individual is ill.
Quarantine- means there was possible exposure to a positive Covid individual. Individuals are placed on quarantine as a precautionary measure.
In the event a classroom and teacher are placed on quarantine, learning will continue via Schoology, Conferences and Teams. Please ensure you know what time each day your child should be logged into their class. Teachers are busy helping your students practice logging into Teams or Conferences (within the Schoology platform) to ensure instruction and learning continues. It is imperative that we work together between school and home to ensure our students are getting the best possible education we can give them during these unprecedented times. If you are uncertain how to login, the time your child should be logging in each day or questions in general, please contact your child’s teacher or myself: Clowers@ k12.wv.us
