I hope all of you are well and are doing your best to stay healthy. The BASD\u2019s <em>Tier Five Mitigation Plan\u00a0<\/em>will officially begin tomorrow, Monday, March 30<sup>th<\/sup>, when all teachers will begin to provide formal instruction to all students as per the following district guidelines:\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022BASD middle schools will perform asynchronous instruction, meaning that instructor and student interactions are not dependent on real time. Asynchronous instruction will allow the student to engage in learning activities anywhere and anytime during a defined window of calendar time.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022This window of calendar time will be defined as one week during Tier Five which will begin on Monday at 9:00 AM and continue through the following Monday at 12:00 Noon when assignments will be due.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Each BASD middle school will provide\u00a0<em>Common Tier Five Assignments<\/em>\u00a0that will be issued weekly on Mondays by 9:00 AM.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022The\u00a0<em>Common Tier Five Assignments<\/em>\u00a0will consist primarily of one assignment for each content area each week and will take no longer than sixty minutes to complete. Only these\u00a0<em>Common Tier Five Assignments<\/em>\u00a0will be required and graded.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Teachers will oversee the core instruction of the weekly assignments in Schoology and will communicate directly with students and parents. Paper packets will be available at each middle school and food distribution site from 10:00 AM \u2013 1:00 PM for those who do not have access to technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022The BASD core on-line curriculum resources such as EnVision, StudySync, Discovery Ed, etc. can be accessed through Clever and will be utilized in the delivery of the\u00a0<em>Common Tier Five Assignments.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2022Encore teachers will formally provide their students academic continuity by offering weekly learning and communication opportunities (not graded) to their students in Schoology.<\/p>\n<p>If your child\u2019s chromebook or anything else they need is still at school, Mr. Sawicki or Mr. Rahs will be at School tomorrow and Tuesday only to allow for students to pick up materials.\u00a0\u00a0After Tuesday no one is permitted into the buildings.<\/p>\n<p>This\u00a0<em>Tier Five Mitigation Plan<\/em>, although not ideal, will provide our teachers the opportunity to deliver some detailed content while primarily focusing on positive engagement and communication with students. Please continue to stay current with our district and school web sites as well as on Twitter for updated and important information.\u00a0\u00a0Please email your child\u2019s team leader should you have questions or issues as we all move to get through this crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you and please stay safe and healthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good afternoon, this message is from Mr. Rahs, principal of Northeast Middle School.
