Beginning today, LMS teachers will be contacting the families of students in their Scouts for Scouts (S4S) advisory classes. You may receive a call from a restricted or unknown number as a result of this. Many teachers are using an app called Google Voice to make calls. The purpose of this call is to make contact with families and check in. We miss our students and wish we were all in school. Teachers are working to make virtual extension activities available online to students starting next week. Students should log into Canvas and Schoology on Monday to see what activities are available. These and other other applications can easily be accessed through Classlink which is found at the bottom of the ACSD1 web page. Students should also check their school emails periodically.
At the present time, students should work on any missing or late assignments from the third quarter. Please have your students log into PowerSchool if they're not sure if they have any missing work. Teachers will reach out to families regarding missing work next week as well. If you have questions for teachers, they will be holding virtual office hours starting on Monday. LMS teachers will be actively responding to email from 1:00-3:30 on Monday and Wednesday and 8:30-12:00 on Tuesday and Thursday. Although it can be challenging, we encourage families to maintain a structured routine at home where students get up, eat breakfast, etc. at predictable times.
Thank you for your continued support. Interacting with students virtually is not an ideal scenario, but it is our reality for now. The district will be sending out a survey on Friday to assess families' needs in the event schools are closed after the 6th. Please be on the lookout for this and take a few moments to complete it.
