BTEC Families,
With winter weather season upon us, the purpose of this communication is to inform families on Alternate Method of Instruction (AMI) procedures should the district choose to utilize these days. Announcements about weather-related school closures will be shared via Parent Square, Facebook, and on local news stations.
Here are some important things for you to know about AMI learning at BTEC:
- Teachers will push out all required assignments via Google Classroom. Students are required to log in and complete these assignments for a grade as well as their AMI attendance.
- The nature of these assignments will be: a lesson or activity that reinforces review content; an assignment that can be completed independently; a way for students to check their understanding (self-assessment, discussion board, or formative check); an assignment that can be completed and submitted by the next in-seat day.
- Teachers will be available by email and Parent Square from 8:00 am-3:00 pm to support students
- SENDING SCHOOLS: If your home school is on traditional snow day but BTEC is either in-seat or AMI, you are still responsible for checking Google Classroom for posted assignments. All assignments that require students to be in-seat will either be exempted or made up when sending school students return.
- If internet access is not readily available, please have your student inform their teachers as soon as possible.
Please reach out with any questions.
Sincerely,
Paul Moore, BTEC Director
