Students in remote learning will continue to log onto Google Classroom or Seesaw and follow their regular school day with their teachers. We ask that all in-person students continue to bring their technology to and from school each day.
The District is continuously montioring the number of staff absences. When we reach a point we cannot cover absences to safely educate and transport children, we will transition to remote learning at specific school buildings or the entire District.
The District will continue to support our students and families during this transition:
Grab-and-go mealsfor students will be served at school sites from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. Please check theDistrict's websitefor locations.
Technology supportcan be accessed by visitingRCSDLearns.
Vaccine clinicsare being held at select schools. More information, including the link to schedule an appointment, is posted on theDistrict's website.
The District is working with local pediatricians to maximize opportunities to get vaccinated.
