Draft Minutes:
Remote option equitable for when students have to miss school for any reason. Face to Face reopening with Special Education Teachers supporting content classes creates equity.
Students attending report enjoy being back, following rules stressful at first, a little socialization good while waiting for pick up. Getting first year students ready for next year and giving 8th graders a chance to finish Face to Face to create memories with peers and teachers.
COVID protocols makes all students safe.
Internet problems with Comcast- more planning for what students do for equity of access.
How does a remote student communicate with the teachers? Teachers could check in with remote students for their questions to be answered, teachers who move around the room cannot always be heard by remote students. Students do not want to get in trouble for asking a question, do they unmute and ask. Perhaps offer Q&A-Review time first part of class especially for remote learners. Equity for procedures for remote students and teach the expectation. Perhaps class recordings could continue to be available for remote learner reference?
No Before/After school program or Learning Support Time challenges to equity to remote students.
Bus for East side students in the future?
