Mead School District to begin weekly communication with students, parents
Beginning Monday, the Mead School District will begin a system of weekly communication with parents and students during the current closure, the district announced Thursday.
This weekly communication will continue each Monday, with the exception of the district’s regularly scheduled from April 6-10.
This email will include enrichment activities estimated to be approximately three hours of learning time in length.
Additionally, resource room and classroom teachers will be available Monday through Friday for email communication with students and parents.
“In most instances response time will be no greater than 24 hours,” the district said.
All districts plan to issue regular updates during the closures, via their websites, social media or direct emails to families.
