Transitioning to Remote Learning

The following information applies situations in which the district transitions to  a remote  model of instruction due to staffing shortages brought about by quarantines, severe weather or other factors.

K-5 Remote Schedule

If we were to go remote in an elementary building or across the district, we would run a schedule similar to the one we are running now in-person.

  • The elementary school day will run from 8:00-1:00 (K-4) and 10:00-3:00 (grade 5) with time built-in for screen breaks during independent work.
  • Instruction will be provided via live instructional Meets with materials shared via Google Classroom and/or Seesaw. When possible, teachers will provide live instructional Meets from their classroom.

K-5 Virtual Academy

The K-5 Virtual Academy schedule and instructional program will remain unchanged if we go remote in an elementary building or across the district.

Student Devices and Tech Support

All K-12 students have Chromebooks that they bring to and from school each day, charging them at home each night. If a parent has questions, they should visit the Parent Technology Support Site or email IT at TechSupport@niskyschools.org.

6-12 Remote Schedules

In grades 6-12, if we transition to a remote model, we will use the current in-person bell schedule and A1 A2/B1 B2 rotation. Instruction will be provided via live instructional Meets with materials shared via Google Classroom.
