MIDDLE SCHOOL NEWS
Friday, Feb. 18th and Monday, Feb. 21st is our Winter Break! We recognize the challenges of virtual learning, because of this, all scholars will have additional time complete any missing assignments. All missing assignments will need to be turned in by Tuesday, Feb. 22nd. New assignments are posted daily and we do not want scholars to fall behind.
MAP testing devices. We have had a few scholars with devices that did not meet the MAP testing requirements. Please have your scholar to go to test.mapnwea.org to make sure their device is compatible. Some of the frequent issues were pop up blockers, resolution and system updates.
Virtual Protocol Reminders: Please make sure your scholar is in a room where distractions are limited. Distractions are distracting to all who are on Google Meet. This includes but not limited to, music, television, and other people in the room. We do understand it is not always possible to have the perfect setting but minimal distractions are appreciated.
