Access and Relationship. Access to common learning. Access to interaction with a licensed teacher. Access to educational and social emotional support. Access to a sense of stability and connection. We commit to ensure each and every child in our school system has access to the opportunity and support to learn essential content and skills during the potential school closure period. This is and will remain our primary focus for the duration of distance learning.
