Comprehensive information about students in quarantine and the instructional supports available, as well as answers to many frequently asked questions on this, and other related topics are provided online at:

If your child is quarantined, they will have access to the following supports: 

  • Students may access instructional materials via their teacher’s Canvas page. If your child does not possess a device, one will be assigned by the school. Please contact Mr. Howse, our media specialist, if your child needs a device.
  • In addition to accessing instructional resources from teachers’ Canvas pages, students may participate in two weekly virtual check-ins with each teacher to ask questions or receive help on assignments.  Virtual check-in days and times are posted on your teacher's Canvas page.  Please contact your child's teacher directly if you have any questions.
  • For students who have IEPs, case managers will continue to communicate with students and/or parents on their caseload and/or consult with the teachers of record to address necessary accommodations or modifications.  Please reach out to your child's case manager directly if you have questions or concerns.  You may also reach out to Ms. Riley, our special education instructional team leader, if you have questions.
