Hello Families!

Dear Parents and Guardians, 

I hope all of our district families enjoyed the Easter weekend with their loved ones.  While we have all been adjusting to a new routine and trying to find balance in our lives, I wanted to let you know that I will be maintaining a weekly update with families each Wednesday evening in order to pass along pertinent information as we move towards the end of our school year.  The goal of this weekly update is to relay important information in one email so as not to overwhelm you from multiple sources. You can expect information regarding closure, meals, technology, grading, and anything else that may be vital to our district moving forward. We are committed to providing an exemplary remote distance education for our students, while being sensitive to the great impact this pandemic has had on our community.  Thank you for your continued partnership in this endeavor, Dr. Meyer, Superintendent

As we finish the designated soft start period to ensure all students have access to education and technology, parents are asking, “How are schools going to be monitoring student learning from now until the end of the year?” Assessment of student learning is utilized to provide students, parents, and teachers with the appropriate information necessary to monitor progress toward the mutually understood intended outcomes.  In this new era of remote learning, it is important that parents and students understand how we are monitoring learning through feedback. The feedback students receive from their teachers is intended to provide guidance on strength areas and content areas the student still needs to improve in, so students know where to focus their learning energy.  This will guide further growth in mastery of content and understanding of the essential standards. The Grading Protocol below is an overview of the approach our district is taking in order to provide students with feedback. Our daily mission of maximizing student learning is still foremost in our mind and we understand this will need to be adjusted to meet the needs of each and every student in this unique learning environment. Our staff is 100% committed to providing all students with meaningful learning opportunities and connection. We also remain committed to being flexible and responsive to individual student circumstances. Please reach out to teachers if you need us to adjust for your son/daughter. Thank you again for your patience and support as we navigate this new platform of learning, Dr. Meyer and the entire LJSD Teaching staff
