Third quarter will start January 19, 2020. Parents & students have the option to continue with the same learning choice they used during second quarter or to make a change. We ask that parents fill out the form even if your child is continuing with the same learning choice.
Forms will be submitted electronically (it works on a smart phone, too) and can be accessed at https://forms.gle/iFvJgadj9AtPWP1r5 Please fill out the form for each child and hit Submit. You can then submit another response if you have more than one child. Parents will receive an email copy of their answers at the email address they provide on the form. Paper forms are also available in the office if you prefer to fill out a paper copy instead of submitting it electronically.
Forms are due December 11, but will be accepted by Fox Hills electronically until January 6. If you change your learning decision before January 6, please submit the electronic form again. After January 6, we ask that you continue with your chosen learning option for the full quarter. Third quarter starts January 19, 2021 and ends March 25, 2021.
Distance Learning Expectations for Teachers, Students and Parents:
Fridays: Distance Learning will continue for all students on Fridays. Some teachers will send home packets, and some will have the work online.
Teacher Responsibilities:
- Provide instruction through the Google Classroom platform which provides a variety of modalities of instruction, assignment and assessments. Some classrooms are using paper packets which are picked up weekly.
- Communicate with families and students weekly through e-mail, Google Classroom, online meetings, and/or face to face meetings on Fridays.
- Provide feedback on student assignments and assessments.
- Follow the district’s Proficiency Based Learning practices for grading. Grades are based on proficiency scales and student assessments.
- Help provide technical support when students are accessing learning on a school issued Chromebook.
Student and Parent Responsibilities:
- Create a space for learning and a daily schedule, with breaks.
- Reach out to the teacher for support with Google Classroom and assignments.
- Work together on difficult assignments.
- Check for work completion daily by looking on Google Classroom assignments. Please note: Some students submit blank work, so check their work for accuracy and completion before it is submitted.
- Ensure students complete assessment independently!
- Use Chromebooks to engage in distance learning. Other devices may not be compatible with our assignments.
- Daily participation is counted as attendance. If you do not attend for 10 days, you may be unenrolled from Fox Hills.
- Give 100% effort on all you do and have a positive attitude toward learning. Be the BEST you can be and amaze your teacher with quality work!
Thank you for your tremendous effort in making your child’s education a priority and helping create a successful year!
