Dear Knox Trail Families;
First of all, we're having a fantastic first week with students back in the building. I couldn't be happier with how well things have gone! Thank you all so much for your patience as we adjust to having kids back in the building.
Now that Knox Trail Middle School has transitioned to a hybrid platform, Fridays will look slightly different from what they have before. Fridays will be a remote day as it has been from the beginning of the year. However, there will be some minor changes as we advance.
Fridays will be a regular remote school day for students. Teachers will provide work for their students just as they would any other day. Students will have access to teachers. Fridays shall be self-directed remote teaching and learning – asynchronously or synchronously for hybrid teachers. I've asked each of our teachers to communicate to families their intentions for Friday instruction as it may vary from one teacher to the next.
If you have any questions, please reach out to your student's teacher via email.
Respectfully,
Ralph
