Distance learning is instruction in which the student and instructor are in different places. This instruction does not have to occur at the same time. Our proposed plan includes flexibility — allowing students and teachers the ability to schedule learning at the time that is best for them.

• Our focus for Distance Learning is to provide students enrichment opportunities, engagement with curriculum and review of grade level standards.
• We want to support educational routines for students because structure is comforting, especially when our environment is uncertain. We will provide activities for art, physical movement ideas, and social and emotional activities for self-care.
• We will communicate with families and be available to students. Teachers check their email regularly and communicate consistently with students and their parents.
• Teachers are and will continue to collaborate to share best practices and support one another in distance learning.
• Our district uses an accessible learning management system called Google Classroom and students can access Clever via their regular MUSD log-in.
• Support for students’ social and emotional needs — These are uncertain times for our students, and they need us now more than ever. We want to provide students with the support they need to persevere through this challenge. Our counselors, nurses, psychologists, and others are available to help guide them through.
• Grading — Distance learning is a shift for our students. We do not want to create unneeded anxiety surrounding our students’ grades. Under our plan, students will not receive a lesser grade than their current grade (as of March 13, 2020) as a result of engaging in distance learning during this unprecedented crisis.

Your child will receive special education and related supports identified in the Individualized Education Program (IEP), to the greatest extent possible, through Google Classroom assignments and materials, emails, phone calls, and/or online meetings with your child and/or you. Please contact your child’s teacher or principal if you have questions or concerns related to your child’s use of interactive platforms.  

Annual and transition IEP team meetings will be held virtually via either online conferencing or telephonically. During these meetings the District will make a recommendation of a Free and Appropriate Public Education that will begin once school is reopened in a face-to-face physical space. IEP Supports as they are being provided at this time are temporary in nature during this emergency situation and the updated IEP will include an offer of a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE)  for your student in a traditional physical school setting.
