Summer Education Program K-12: We are working on putting together a June Summer Program for students who may have had a difficult time with online learning or just need some additional support during the month of June. This program would be small group and with social distancing with teachers or para’s in groups of no more than five per room. We would work on credit recovery, standards support and fun math and reading activities to recover any loss during the closure. This will be on an entirely volunteer basis and we would love to see students come in for one of the two sessions daily. Students will need to provide their own transportation to and from the learning summer program. We will use this time to increase proficiency for students that may need some additional support. The program will run Monday through Thursday June 8th to June 25th. Lunch and Breakfast Program will continue for three weeks in June for curb side pick-up. We will also offer lunch and breakfast snacks for students attending summer program. Open times for June summer program will be Monday-Thursday: 8:00-8:30 Breakfast Snack Session One: 8:30-11:30 AM 11:30-12:00 Lunch Snack Session Two: 12:00-3:00 PM Students can attend 1 of the 2 sessions daily. Drop off and pick up will need to be arranged for each student. If you are interested in the June Summer Program Please call your building main office and sign up for the June Summer Proficiency Camp Sessions of your choice. We are here to help all students in this time of needed recovery and stable work environments. This is entirely voluntary and we look forward to serving you.

School District #28 Proposed School Plan Covid-19 The proposal for re-opening that came from Governor Bullock to authorize local control and decision-making in the best interest of students has forced districts to make the decision for ourselves when and how we re-open. I believe we have conducted the best possible remote self-learning plan to stay productive and press forward while remaining safe. We have made it a point to guide the education of essential understandings and expectations that must be met with all the tools that are available. Schools are unique in that we would have many issues in conducting business as normal in schools under the current guidelines set forth by the Governor. Issues with school opening include: • Social Distancing with class size of 15-30 • Group congregation in lunch room, recess and passing time • One student per seat on the bus • Getting students to come to school with health concerns of parents • Teachers or Staff with health risks of exposure • Moving from a stay at home order to congregate with close to 600 people daily in close proximity seems to be extreme The latest directive provides for the phased reopening of Montana. It establishes guidance applicable to all phases and provides direction for Phase One, including the Stay at Home Directive and reopening non-essential businesses. It also provides local school the flexibility to make decisions about the remainder of the academic year. Executive Orders 2-2020 and 3-2020 declare that a state of emergency exists in Montana due to the global outbreak of COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus. The meals and buses will continue as planned for the remainder of the year. During the finals period we will run the buses on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday twice a day at 9:00 am and 1:00 pm for students to utilize for finals, school material and checkout return. Proposal I. We continue with our plan of support and achievement of essential understandings for every student in every class until finals. We will continue to conduct online enrichment with study guides for every student in every class for the goal of understanding the expectations of the semester essential understandings. The elementary continues to work on standards and expectations set forth at the beginning of closure. The education plan will continue as established at the beginning of closure until finals. All students will need to check in books and chromebooks at the completion of the year and adequately check-out. II. Finals Period: May 18 to June 5- All teachers will be required to be in school during times that are set up for student assessments and times required by building principals for end of the year reporting and check out with social distancing protocols in place. Teachers will remain available for student support either in school or remotely during the finals period. End of the year assessments will need to be graded and submitted with a letter grade attached. If rubber gloves and masks are needed for grading, let us know, and we will make sure we get you the needed protection. Teachers will be required to hand-in or submit electronically the summative evaluation itself and results of those evaluations for every class by June 5. Teachers will be done: • When every student has been assessed either at home or at school during the finals period. • When final grades are submitted. • When building administration has signed off on all end of year expectations and reporting. A. Elementary Students/Staff/Parents: Students will be given the option of taking final assessments at school or at home over the three-week final assessment period. The expectation will be to have a Math and ELA summative assessment that will measure expected growth of essential understandings. This summative assessment must be something that can be measured and compared to the beginning of the year and/or semester. All other summative evaluations can be completed with needed measurable outcomes that the building principal feels appropriate and needed for final reporting. All students that choose to use the school for final assessments will need to contact their teacher and set up a time and place for assessments. Any students in the building must be supervised with as limited human contact as possible. Students can come in and take the final assessments, turn in books and chromebooks then leave. If online options are available for assessments that will suffice, but students will still need to come in and return books, chromebooks and check-out. We will sanitize any area that has had any human contact. Finalize the summative standard-based assessments and properly check out and students are done for the year. B. Middle School Students/Staff/Parents: Students will be given the option of taking finals at school or at home over the three-week final assessment period. The expectation will be to have a Math, English, Social Studies and Science summative assessment that will measure expected growth and effort. This summative assessment must be something that can be measured and compared to the beginning of the year and/or semester. All other summative evaluations for electives can be completed with needed measurable outcomes that the building principal feels appropriate and needed for final reporting. All students that choose to use the school for final assessments will be set up and supervised with limited or any at all human contact. Students can come in and take the final assessments, turn in books and chromebooks, then leave. We will sanitize any area that has had any human contact. Finalize the summative assessments, check-out and students are done for the year. C. High School Students: • Seniors will be required to come in or complete finals remotely, when possible, during the week of May 18 to May 22. The finals that are required by teachers for the essential understandings are a requirement and will be graded. Project based assessments will also need to be handed in during this week. Senior Projects must be complete and signed off by May 22. Check out forms must be signed before final checkout will be approved. All chromebooks, finals and checkout forms must be returned before checkout is complete. Any students who do not take finals or meet the expected effort of essential understandings will fail the semester. • Grades 9-11 High School Students will be required to come in or complete finals remotely, when possible, during the weeks of May 26 to June 4. The finals that are required by teachers for the essential understandings are a requirement and will be graded. Check out forms must be signed before final checkout will be approved. Project based assessments will also need to be handed in during these two weeks. All chrome books, finals and checkout forms must be returned before checkout is complete. Any students who do not take finals or meet the expected effort of essential understandings will fail the semester.

Teachers will determine the grade based on effort during the closure with work turned in, Google, Learn@home and online efforts and check-ins, end of the year assessment of effort and self-paced learning. Students who are putting in the time, effort and competency of essential understandings will pass the semester. Students who: *have not picked up packets *have not handed in work *have not checked in or completed online enrichment activities *have not made progress on their essential understandings... will not pass the semester. Our open school hours will change in Week 3 to 8am-2pm so we can sanitize on a daily basis. Students as a whole are working really hard and we are very proud of your efforts. Keep up the great work!
