Students and parents,
We appreciate your patience as we have prepared for the start of this new school year. Since there are many new processes and procedures this year, there are bound to be updates. As things come up we will do our best to communicate these things to you. Here are the first updates I have for you:
Purple Group - Students will not have any assignments until they come to the building on Tuesday, but they will need to login for attendance starting today, Friday, August 21st (see below).
Late Arrivals & Medical Visits - If you are running late to school and are tardy or arrive late to school due to a medical appointment, you must check in at office first and then Ms. Sweeney will direct you to the correct location for the daily temperature screenings.
Purple & Gold Groups - The days you are not in the school building, your e-learning days, you will need to login to Teacher Ease once per day to check-in for attendance. Upon login to Teacher Ease, a screen should popup for you to complete this check-in.
All-Remote Learners - You need to login to Teacher Ease once per school day to check-in for attendance starting today, August 21st. Upon login to Teacher Ease, a screen should popup for you to complete this check-in. Remote learners will have lessons/assignments that started today. When you login to TeacherEase you do not need to worry about your schedule, you are just assigned to classes the times do not matter. My advice to you is that you set a time for yourself to work on your school work each day and stick to it to ensure you do not fall behind. All assignments will be due at 11:59pm on the due date.
If you have questions, please feel free to email me or call the school.
FYI,
Remote Students - will login to TeacherEase once per day for their attendance. Upon login a screen will popup for them to "check-in"

Parent reminder:
Chromebook distribution for any student at Monroe, in grades K-6 who have selected Remote Learning, will be on Wednesday, August 19, 2020 from 8:00 am - 11:00 am at the Monroe gym lobby doors.
We are aware of the confusion regarding the student schedules. The random appearance of the schedule is due to a programming error within the student management system, not a data entry error. We are working with the software company to correct the schedule malfunction. Please focus on the class periods (Day One Periods 1-4 and Day 2 Periods 5-8) and not on the order in which they appear on the schedule. Hopefully we will have the problem corrected soon. Thank you for your patience!
