Since it is their first year implementing eLearning, North Judson-San Pierre School officials had to create some policies to go along with the program. School Board members considered the policies on first reading when they met Tuesday evening.
Superintendent Dr. Annette Zupin noted that the Teacher’s Association and the schools’ administrators were consulted to craft a document that fits for NJ-SP. She added that they also utilized support and resources from other area schools.
The policies passed on first reading and will be up for adoption at the board’s next meeting on Tuesday, October 16th.
She reminded the members that they’ll be holding two pre-planned days this year. She added that though practice days will take place in October, many teachers are already preparing students and getting them familiarized with the process.
Dr. Zupin emphasized that students will not be penalized if they don’t have access to the internet. There are mechanisms in place to allow students extra time to turn in an assignment if they were unable to get it completed due to connectivity issues.
Within the next few weeks, parents will receive some informative letters from the superintendent as well as their child’s teacher regarding eLearning and what is expected of their student.
