Greetings GCI Community,
 
Our first Blended Learning Day of the year is scheduled for December 7th.  Details for this day are as follows: 
  • During the morning, our teachers will engage in Professional Development to support new student programming for de-streamed and single-streamed courses. 

  • In the morning, students will participate in asynchronous (self-directed) learning by logging into their class Virtual Learning Environment (Brightspace or Google Classroom) and completing the work provided by their teachers for all their courses. In the afternoon they will be provided a synchronous session for each period (see schedule below) to support the work that was assigned in the morning. 

  • Blended Learning Days are instructional days, so attendance will be taken. Teachers will take attendance based on remote student engagement at any point in the day. Teachers will let students know how they can connect with them.

  • A supervised study space (the GCI Cafeteria) will be available for students who chose to come to school.

  • ACE students will attend school with regular programming and following regular attendance procedures.

  • Transportation will run at regular times.
