Wickersham Elementary

Wickersham Caregivers:

Please see below. If you have any questions, please reach out tomorrow morning to our main office.Winter weather is expected this weekend! If schools need to close next week, we will call either a Snow Day (schools are closed) or a Flexible Instructional Day (FID), when students learn from home. Given the possible size of the coming storm, we may make different calls as the week goes along.

To prepare, student iPads will be sent home on Friday, January 23. Students with internet access will complete their work online. Students without internet access, and some younger students, will use paper packets, which will also be sent home Friday.

On a Flexible Instructional Day:

🍎 Learning begins at 9:00 a.m. for middle and high school and 10:00 a.m. for elementary students.
🍎 Teachers will post lessons in Schoology (Grades 6–12) and Seesaw (Grades K–5).
Students are expected to complete the assignments provided.
🍎 Virtual office hours and ways to contact your child’s teacher will be shared the morning of the FID.

Turning in work, online or on paper, counts as attendance and shows your child was engaged in learning. Please be sure your student completes their work on the iPad or returns the paper packet to their teacher when school resumes.

As a reminder, your child is responsible for the safe care and handling of their iPad, including proper use and timely return of the device. To help preserve battery life, the iPad should only be turned on while your child is completing online assignments and powered off once the work is finished.
