Asynchronous Learning Dates Proposal

Dr. Schug highlighted what would be 4.5 dates throughout the coming winter for possible districtwide asynchronous learning in an effort to recognize and respond to staff feedback amidst the challenges of teaching during the pandemic.  The goal is to temporarily lighten some of the burden caused by lost time for planning and collaboration while adapting to staffing shortages and multiple modalities of teaching.  There was general support for the idea of relief for staff how asynchronous days can assist with this.  The topic will be on the November 30 meeting agenda of the full Board of Education.
