A few Google Meet etiquette reminders:
- If you have your camera on be mindful of your surroundings which could be seen by fellow parents/guardians/teachers as well as kids.
- Remain “on mute” UNLESS asked to unmute.
- Feel welcome to use the chat feature to note your questions or thoughts.
- If someone joins late and asks a question in the chat which the teacher has already answered – help one another out and answer appropriately.
- This time will go by very quickly and is intended to be an overview and an opportunity to ‘see’ some other parents/guardians and staff.
- This is NOT a time to discuss the needs of your individual child. Please do reach out to the teacher directly if you have concerns specific to your child.
- Bring your patience and a positive attitude.
Should you have general questions or concerns during the Open House/s drop into my Office Hours link. Mr. DiCarlo will be popping into Meets but he will also be available here before and between Meets –> 6-6:30

9/9/2020 Virtual Return to School Schedule Update:
Please review the updated student schedules, specifically for Wednesdays. The change is that the Wednesday morning meetings at 7:45am will be synchronous (live face-to-face with teacher), just like every other morning. The Wednesday morning meetings will not be recorded sessions as previously stated on the schedule. This change is to support daily attendance taking and to have a consistent daily whole class connection with the teacher. The remainder of the Wednesday schedule will remain the same, focusing on grade level support sessions in the morning (same basic “grade block” times) and student asynchronous work time in the afternoon, while teachers are working on professional development. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding as we make minor adjustments to best support everyone during virtual learning. Please note that the adolescent schedule follows a somewhat different daily schedule to support the nature of the adolescent student, curriculum and program.
Peace,
Joe DiCarlo, Principal
