Thank you to all our students, teachers, and parents for working together this week during remote learning. Tomorrow, Friday, January 30, will be an Optional Workday. That means there will be no remote learning for students tomorrow. We’re doing this so we can save our very last remote learning day for any future weather events. There will be no athletic or after-school activities tomorrow. Friday, February 13th will now be a regular school day for students instead of a teacher workday. We appreciate you being so flexible and for making this week a success. Enjoy the long weekend, and we hope to see everyone back soon! Thank you, and stay safe.

Gracias a todos nuestros estudiantes, maestros y padres por trabajar juntos esta semana durante el aprendizaje a distancia. Mañana, viernes 30 de enero, será un día de trabajo opcional. Esto significa que no habrá clases a distancia para los estudiantes mañana. Hacemos esto para reservar nuestro último día de aprendizaje a distancia para cualquier eventualidad climática futura. No habrá actividades deportivas ni extracurriculares mañana. El viernes 13 de febrero será ahora un día escolar normal para los estudiantes, en lugar de un día de trabajo para los maestros. Agradecemos su flexibilidad y por hacer de esta semana un éxito. Disfruten del fin de semana largo y esperamos verlos a todos pronto. Gracias y cuídense.

Due to continued hazardous road conditions, we will transition to a Remote Learning Day on Tuesday, January 27. This means all schools and facilities will be closed for students and staff. Students should work on their remote learning assignments. No athletics or afterschool activities. Remote Learning Days are flexible school days where students work at their own pace on posted assignments, also known as asynchronous work. While there are no required live classes, teachers are available during optional office hours if students have questions. Students are expected to complete all activities and reach out to their teachers if they need assistance. Work is due within five days of returning to school. View/Download our Remote Learning Guide here: https://5il.co/3tij1

Los días de aprendizaje a distancia son días escolares flexibles en los que los estudiantes trabajan a su propio ritmo en las tareas asignadas, lo que se conoce como trabajo asincrónico. Si bien no hay clases presenciales obligatorias, los profesores están disponibles durante el horario de consulta opcional para responder las preguntas de los estudiantes. Se espera que los estudiantes completen todas las actividades y se comuniquen con sus profesores si necesitan ayuda. Las tareas deben entregarse dentro de los cinco días posteriores al regreso a clases presenciales. Consulte o descargue nuestra Guía de aprendizaje a distancia aquí: https://5il.co/3tij1

We are closely monitoring the incoming winter weather. Students are bringing learning packets home today for potential remote instruction. If power outages occur, we may move to a full closure instead. Safety is our priority! Watch for updates via call, text, email, social media, and posted on our website.

Estamos monitoreando de cerca las condiciones meteorológicas invernales. Hoy los estudiantes llevarán a casa material de estudio para una posible instrucción a distancia. Si se producen cortes de energía, podríamos optar por cerrar las escuelas por completo. ¡La seguridad es nuestra prioridad! Manténganse atentos a las actualizaciones a través de llamadas, mensajes de texto, correo electrónico, redes sociales y en nuestro sitio web.

AWE Parents--please check your child(ren)'s bookbag TONIGHT! We sent home remote learning packets in preparation for the winter weather. If ABSS calls a "Remote Learning Day," we will send specific instructions. For now, please take this out of your child's bookbag and put it somewhere safe.
