Remote Days vs. Snow Days

On a Remote Day, students will complete remote instruction/learning activities and assignments provided by their teachers at home. This is contrary to a school cancellation where there is no instructional work and the day will be made up later in the school year. Remote Days will be treated as asynchronous learning days, which means that lessons and instruction must be posted by 10:00 AM. Coursework can be completed at any point during the day as long as it is submitted the next school day.

The benefit of implementing a Remote Day is that it does not require additional make-up days when school is canceled, which could shorten the spring break or extend the school year. The District received approval for five Remote Days to use this school year if necessary.

If the district receives information that there will be inclement weather in advance, then they may choose to use a Remote Day. If the inclement weather is unexpected, then they may choose a Snow Day. Remote Days will be treated as asynchronous learning days, which means that lessons and instruction must be posted by 10:00 AM. Coursework can be completed at any point during the day as long as it is submitted the next school day.

Families were sent a survey to determine how many Chromebooks would be needed should a Remote Day occur. If you indicate as needing a device, those students will receive a loaner device the day before an anticipated weather event and return it the next in-person day per the signed agreement.
