Schoology
I am excited to share that students, parents, and teachers in our Twain Middle school community will pilot Schoology (pronounced /SKOO-luh-jee/), FCPS’s new learning management system, to engage with learning materials and our school community during the 2020-21 school year.
Schoology is a learning space that enhances face-to-face and distance learning through communication, collaboration, and personalized learning. With Schoology, students can submit homework assignments online, review teacher feedback, participate in interactive discussions, read announcements, take tests, and more. As a parent, you will be able to view
- your student’s class,
- your student’s participation,
- teacher comments, and
- feedback in Schoology
As a pilot school, we will be using Schoology for as many student assignments and communications as possible, including staff and classroom communication. Our teachers will be participating in professional development this summer so they can create an engaging, student-centered environment for your student. In August, you and your student will be given login directions and information about how to use Schoology.
We look forward to using Schoology in our classrooms this fall to enhance connectivity and communication across our school.
If you have questions or feedback regarding Schoology, please visit: https://www.fcps.edu/schoology or contact 703-313-3700.
Sincerely,
Chuck Miller, Principal
