Friday, December 20th will be a Virtual/Remote Learning Practice Day for students.

​

K-5 Teachers will send Virtual Learning Practice Day work home on December 13th. This allows students and parents the opportunity to ask questions during the week of December 16th – 19th before the actual Virtual / Remote Learning Practice Day occurs. Students will complete the virtual work for December 20th and return the Practice Day work on January 7th.

​

The Virtual Learning Practice work will be labeled Virtual Learning Practice Day.

​

Students will return the work that was assigned for December 20th on Tuesday, January 7th when they return to school after the holiday break.

How will I know when a Virtual/Remote Learning Day is assigned for my child?

​

Our district still has the ability to announce a snow day as needed. We also have the opportunity to assign Virtual/Remote Learning Days as needed throughout the school year.

​

Dr. Carpenter will announce when a Virtual/Remote Learning Day has been assigned for our students.

​

This will be announced just as a snow day is communicated. For example: “ Carter County Schools will have a Virtual/Remote Day of Learning on…”

How will I know if my child has a snow day or a virtual/remote learning day?

When it is announced that Carter County Schools are closed.

No student work is assigned.

​

When a Virtual / Remote Learning Day is announced, students in Grades K-5 will need to complete a packet… Virtual Day #1, Virtual Day #2, or Virtual Day #3.

​

(This could be called a Remote Learning Day on the media sites.)

How will my child in Grades K-5th know what to do when a Virtual/Remote Learning Day is announced?

  • On December 13th, students in grades K-5th will receive their work for the Practice Virtual/Remote Learning Day as well as three additional days of virtual/remote day work.

​

  • The additional packets are labeled: Virtual Day #1, Virtual Day #2, and Virtual Day #3.

​

  • We are sending this early so when a virtual/remote day is announced by Dr. Carpenter, your child will already have the needed materials at home with them to complete their Virtual/Remote Day of Learning Work.

Does my child need to complete all the packets at one time?

*Your child will only complete the virtual/remote work as assigned.

*The first assignment will be for December 20th. ( The Virtual/Remote Learning Practice Day.) Only the work labeled and assigned for the Virtual/Remote Learning Practice Day will be returned on January 7th.

*For each Virtual/Remote Learning Day called, students will complete one day of virtual / remote work. For example, when Dr. Carpenter announces a Virtual/Remote Learning Day for students after the practice day on 12/20, the students will complete Virtual Day #1 work.

*When the next Virtual/Remote Learning Day is called, the students will complete Virtual Day #2 work.
