Virtual Back to School Knight

Wed, 01/27/2021 - 9:38am

 

What You Can Expect: Back to School Knight will allow you to virtually meet the teachers who teach your student and have the opportunity to hear information about the classes they are taking during the spring semester. You will have the opportunity to travel from period to period virtually just like your student does each day. 

 

You will be able to virtually visit your child’s classes for semester two for periods 1-4. Each class visit is only ten minutes, which allows the teacher to present to all families for each period at once. Therefore, if you’d like to have an individual conversation with your child’s teacher, feel free to email the teacher to arrange a time for a parent/teacher conference. 

 

Feel free to have your student attend with you so they can hear more information regarding their courses, and they may even be able to assist you in your journey through these virtual sessions. 

 

**Staff will also be available in Google Meet Room to assist throughout the evening.

Joining with or without your camera on is your choice, we are just happy to have you join us for our second semester Back to School Knight.  Due to the large number of families that will be joining, we do ask that you mute your microphone during the sessions.

The generic formula for Period 1-4 Codes:
