The communications will become more \n specific to our reopening when we return in January. We will include our policies and procedures for \n students to be on campus, some requirements you need to complete before students are allowed back \n on campus (LumiSight self-screening and the Safe Return to School Google Form completion) found at \n the bottom of this communication, and how the instructional day will look (very different) from when \n we were together before COVID. \n The Week of January 18th includes the following \n • Monday, January 18 -- No school in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. and his significant \n contributions to the Civil Rights Movement. \n • Tuesday-Thursday, January 19-21 -- Asynchronous days (no live instruction) as teachers prep \n for the return of students on campus. Minimum Day (Monday) class schedule \n • Friday, January 22 -- Non-student day (no assignments) for the end of Semester 1 & Quarter 2 \n Semester 2 Daily Bell Schedule \n The second semester will have a different Daily Bell Schedule to accommodate the return of students \n to campus. The draft of the Daily Bell Schedule includes a Tuesday – Friday start time of 8:00 a.m. and \n a student dismissal time of 1:40 p.m. We will not be offering after school programs or childcare. \n Make-Up Picture Day \n Make-up Picture Days are \n • Tuesday, February 16 for A-Cohort \n • Wednesday, February 17 for B-Cohort \n Pictures can be taken during students’ Advisory and Lunch periods. \n Your Student’s Schedule \n We anticipate your student’s new schedule for Semester 2 to be available through StudentVUE on \n January 15. Teachers will send emails via Synergy with the Google Classroom/Zoom information for \n students to use on Monday, January 25. \n Upcoming Dates \n • 12/18/2020 -- Regular school day for students \n • 12/21 – 1/8/2021 -- No school (Winter Break) \n • 1/18/2021 -- No school (MLK Day) \n • 1/19 – 1/21/2021 -- Minimum Day (Monday) schedule with asynchronous learning (no live \n instruction) \n • 1/22/2021 -- Non-student day (End of Semester 1 & Quarter 2) \n • 1/25/2021 -- First Day of Semester 2 & Quarter 3 – Classes are virtual / Monday schedule \n • 1/26/2021 -- First Day of in-person learning – A-Cohort / hybrid model \n • 1/27/2021 -- First Day of in-person learning – B-Cohort / hybrid model \n Two Items that Must Be Completed before Students Are Allowed on Campus \n In past weeks, we introduced the way students will be pre-screened before they can enter campus \n each day. The self-screening platform SMUSD uses is LumiSight. Families will need to complete the \n screening questions every day, a separate form for each child, before the child is allowed on campus. \n 1) Please watch this how-to video, and then set up your account now, so we can be ready \n to come back to campus on Tuesday, January 26, 2021. \n • The English version is here: LumiSight SMUSD - 10.19.2020.mp4 \n • And the Spanish version is here: LumiSight SMUSD 10.19.20 SPANISH.webm \n 2) Each student will also need to complete the Safe Return to School form found on our \n website homepage—or click here \n We hope you all have a safe, restful holiday break.","bbox":{"left":0.088235,"top":0.086534,"width":0.8204060000000001,"height":0.85283}}],"images_bbox":[],"images_bbox_not_text_overlap":[]}
