Connected Learning - Snow Day

Parents/Guardian,

The Monett School District will have a connected learning day on Tuesday, February 16, due to inclement weather and unsafe road conditions. Packets and devices were distributed on Friday, Feb. 12th. MES, CPE, and MIS have placed plastic bins with paper packets by the front entrance. If you have not picked up a device or paper packet, you may still pick one up for your child. Each packet will come with additional information to guide students through connected learning snow days. Students with a device at home will receive assignments through Google Classroom. Devices were fully charged upon pick up and should only be used for school work. 

Connected learning snow days are not required to be made up by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. 

Offices are being staffed based on road conditions, please call ahead of time to ensure someone is in the office. Offices are scheduled to open from 9:00-3:30 PM. If offices close for the day, this information will be shared on our social media pages. Make sure you are following us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. 

The following information includes teacher office hours: 

  • MES: Students received paper packets for four days. Paper packets are still available for pick up by the MES front entrance in plastic bins. Teachers will be available by email or Remind on connected learning days from 9:00-12:00 pm. 
  • CPE: If a student does not have internet access, paper packets are available for four days. Packets may be picked up from the plastic bins by the school entrance.

Students are expected to complete and turn in the assignments received. However, connected learning is not intended to stress families. Our goal is for students to take connected learning one day at a time and reinforce previously learned material. If your child has questions, please use the teacher's office hours. If students cannot reach a teacher, email the building principal or assistant principal; they will help students connect with teachers. 

We hope you are staying safe and warm on this cold week! We will keep you posted as more information becomes available. 

Thank you,
