We continue to be amazed at the tremendous effort you and our teachers are making to ensure your student is continuing their education under extraordinary circumstances. Each week, more than 90 percent of JCPS students have been in communication with their teachers and participating in Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI). While we know school-at-home can’t match the instruction your student gets in a traditional classroom, we are thrilled with the effort.
Here are some updates:
|
Graduating Seniors: A web page has been created just for you. It has the schedule for every school’s virtual graduation ceremony which will be livestreamed on JCPS’ YouTube Channel, information and scheduling for cap and gown pickup as well as a list of the community-sponsored celebrations for the Class of 2020. We hope you will participate in your school’s virtual graduation ceremony. It will feature speeches by your principal and a classmate, the reading and posting of seniors’ names plus your school’s Class of 2020 video. Videos for all 28 graduating classes can be found here.
Picking up items from school: Schools will be communicating with you about opportunities to pick up any items left at school when our buildings closed in March. Your school will be notifying you of the date and time where a drive-thru and walk-up will be set up to distribute your belongings that were left in your student’s locker or classroom.
NTI Survey: Parents and students, JCPS wants to hear your views on your NTI experience. Parents are encouraged to provide feedback by taking this survey. We’ve designed another survey just for students. Students can take this survey.
Feel Good Videos: JCPS’ students, parents, teachers and staff have done incredible work since schools closed on March 13th. Several inspiring stories can be found on our YouTube Channel.
We hope these communications are helpful as we attempt to keep you up-to-date on what’s going on at JCPS during these unusual times. And don’t forget to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@JCPSKY)!
