Dear SJOA Parents and Guardians,
This week, March 23-26, 2020, we will continue remote and eLearning. Each morning, Janet and I will continue to send an all-school e-mail with our prayer, pledge, and a daily scripture reflection around 8:00 a.m.
The plans provided here are for THIS COMING WEEK only. In addition to the website, you will be able to locate your child's plans in an e-mail from his or her homeroom teacher.
To begin the day, please e-mail your child's homeroom teacher to verify his or her attendance OR have your child send an e-mail (for older students). *We will look to modify the daily attendance plan after Spring break.
Teachers will be responsive throughout the day and will assist with any questions or clarifications needed.
Many of you may not realize that I am also a SJOA school mom. I wanted to share my personal plan for eLearning with my own children at home the next two weeks. Regardless of when learning occurs within your own home, I encourage all of you to stick to a routine and carve out designated "school time" each day. This may look different from family to family.
We wanted to also include a few offers and resources that have been shared with us.
We have not investigated the validity of some of these offers, but wanted to pass along anything we can that could be helpful during this time.
"Internet Essentials" Package free from Comcast for the next 60 days.

eLearning Program
-
St. Joan of Arc School has been approved by the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) to host eLearning days. The new IDOE eLearning Day Program can be used on a day of inclement weather, on a make-up day for inclement weather, or on a planned day for a myriad of valid opportunities so that learning can happen by utilizing the tools and experiences of today’s learners.
Teachers have created grade-level plans for parents and students to access at home. Students who do not have access to the internet will be offered a make-up window upon the return to school. Students will have three full school days to complete the work and submit it for credit.
Updated grade-level plans will be available by 9:00 a.m. on the designated e-Learning day.
Grade-level teachers will be available for questions, support, and assistance via e-mail from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
