Happy Spring Break!🌼🌷
We wish a happy and healthy break to all of our A3 Families. Please be reminded that no eLearning work is due during the break. We will resume eLearning work on Tuesday, April 14th following our normal school calendar.
Starting Tomorrow, Anderson 3 will add 6 additional Wi-Fi Hot Spot locations for students to access the Internet to download lessons and homework. The hotspots will be open from 10 AM - 2 PM, during teacher office hours. To access a map with locations: https://bit.ly/A3BusWiFi
Elementary schools will have a drive-thru eLearning packet pickup for additional work and drop-off for completed work for K4-2 parents on Thursday, April 2nd from 7-9 AM and from 4-6 PM. This is for parents who cannot access work digitally. Additional packets are available digitally on our eLearning website bit.ly/A3elearn. To turn in completed packets, you may also scan or take a photo of the packets and email them to your child’s teacher. There will be a drop-off bin available outside these hours on Thursday (April 2nd) and Friday (April 3rd.)
When you pick up or download the next packet of work, it will contain assignments for six weeks. At this time, your student is only responsible for the first three weeks of assignments. The extra three weeks are being provided in case the school closure is extended past April 30th.
