Distance Learning Update - Aug. 19, 2020

Hello everyone,

Three days down and we continue to learn. It’s the great thing about being part of learning organization. We are always ready to learn and grow. First off, I want to thank our students and families for their patience. Students are doing a great job getting acclimated to our systems. I also want to give a huge shout out to our teachers, and all the teachers for doing amazing and really hard work during a difficult time.

We have had few incidents where students have decided to log into a different class/meeting and create a disruption. It is difficult for teachers to determine who is on the zoom when names are not specific to the student. Some students are clearly using devices that belong to parents and other family members. That is fine, but beginning tomorrow we will not allow students into the zoom meeting unless they use their first and last name. Here is a video one of our teachers put together for students who may not know how to change the name in zoom.

Thanks,

KMS Team

Students should continue with the learning as assigned through google classroom and other teacher assigned lessons.
