Remote Learning Snow Day Schedule Info for School Closure (as needed)

Snow Day Plan

Last week, Dr. Zisko sent a letter to families explaining what will happen in the event of a snow day. If a snow day occurs, classroom teachers will send out a Teams link for your child to participate in remote learning. The link will be the same for the entire grade level. Grade level teachers will partner to provide activities for the day. B.F. Day will follow a consistent schedule preschool – 5th grade. Students will continue to have scheduled times with our specialist teachers. Our hope is that families with multiple children will find the schedule easy to access. We know all our families have competing needs and priorities. As a community, B.F. Day will continue to be flexible and meet each other where we’re at. This means we trust you to make the best decision for you, your student, and your family on a snow day and in the moment. If your student finds joy in sledding down a hill and socializing with neighbors outside, please know that we also cherish childhood memories like these. We will provide learning opportunities, time for collaboration, and celebration for all students. We are equally committed to ensuring no one falls behind or misses anything essential during an online learning day.

If we are put on notice for a potential delayed start or snow day, Dr. Zisko will send out communication to families so that we can all adequately prepare.

Devices will be sent home on December 16 in case January 3 may potentially be called a snow day. If school resumes as expected on January 3, please send your child back to school with their device. Lower elementary students are issued iPads. Upper elementary students are issued laptops.

Announcements

Students are permitted to play on the playgrounds from 7:35 a.m. – 7:50 a.m. Kindergarten and first graders are permitted to play on the lower playground. Grades 2-5 are permitted to play on the upper playground. During morning drop off, students may not play outside of their grade level assigned playground.

The reason for this is student safety. Thank you for your help in reminding your child where they may play in the morning. They may play on the playground, line up in their classroom area, or get breakfast in the cafeteria. Instruction begins at 7:55. Please support your child’s classroom and limit interruptions by arriving at campus on time. Thank you.

Reminders
