Things to Consider
Please read the weekly update carefully.
Welcome back Connery Students and Teachers!
All staff will report to the building 5 days per week.
If you have any concerns about your report days, please contact Glenda and Liz.
- Student Attendance - please remember to post attendance on time.
- Thank you to specialists and support staff for coverage this week! You have been VERY helpful during a tough week of absences.
- Simultaneous Instruction - Message from Dr. Tutwiler HERE.
- Mask Break Plan - This is in support of people who have requested a plan for mask break. We are aware that others are already on a schedule, and are simply providing some options for those that need it. Mask Break Plan
- Bathroom Procedures - Reminder only 1 student needs to go to the bathroom at a time. All grade 3-5 students must sign in and out of their classrooms.
- Memo about Student Transfers per Dr. Tutwiler
Students may NOT switch from Remote to In-person learning (with the exception of students with disabilities, due to the transportation issue).
Transfers within LPS to district school will be granted if In-person learning was chosen at previous school; if remote learning was chosen, the student should stay put until the end of the school year.
Students may switch from In-person to Remote learning.
- Attendance Guidance - If an in-person student does not report to school but does log into the remote learning from home this student needs to be put in as "P" (Present off campus). An inquiry should be made from the Social Worker, Nurse, Principal, or teacher to see if everything is ok and to inquire why the student is not in school. This year, we will practice grace and compassion: it is more important that we have our students accessing their education rather than not coming at all.
- Updated Classroom Assignments - Assignments
- Progress Monitoring Data (K-2) - Please make sure the data is in by April 23rd.

- Return - On the date of return to in person learning, all remote students will work asynchronously for an hour. Please make sure that your remote students know that you will begin later in the day.
