Stay Engaged During the School Closure
We have prepared activities and resources for students to explore during our school closure. Students can use them to review content they have already learned, preview topics scheduled to be learned later this year, and explore additional topics of interest.
These activities and resources:
·       Do not replace direct teacher instruction.
·       Are optional for students. Assignments are not required or graded.
·       May be supplemented by individual schools that mail/email additional resources.
