Courses Taught:

6th, 7th and 8th Grade Science

Voyager Expectations:

  1. Students will attend live classes by joining the Google Meet linked in their Google Calendar. (This INCLUDES their SMALL GROUP TIME!)
  2. MANDATORY STUDY HALL is an opportunity to learn time management skills and work on missing assignments.  Study Hall will take place during small group time.  Students that are required to attend study hall will have study hall listed in their Google Calendar instead of Small Group A, B or C. 
  3. Students will be able to complete synchronous and asynchronous activities in a timely manner. 
  4. ATTENDANCE - students must attend at least half the Google Meet to be present for that class. They join Google Meets through their Google Calendar.  Join this way instead of the Google Meet page to see your entire schedule!   For example, if students join and leave after 5-10 minutes they are absent for that class. If you have a doctors appointment and were absent, we would need a doctor's note to change your absence to an excused absence. 
  5. TARDIES - If a student chooses to join late - we ask you to PLEASE NOT INTERRUPT -  and to go back and watch the recorded lesson for any missed content.  
  6. SUBMITTING ASSIGNMENTS - Check your share settings. All assignments submitted through Pearson must be ‘shared with Randolph County School System’ in order for your teachers to view your work.
  7. LANDING PAGE - Access and navigate the Pearson landing pages for each of your courses.  - They include cool links and resources to assist you in your classes.
  8. DISCIPLINE - failure to be an appropriate virtual learner may result in the student being removed from the meet. 
  9. WHAT TO DO WHEN TECHNOLOGY FAILS - DO NOT INTERRUPT CLASS - Have the student mute their computer or log out and either restart the computer, check the school how-to page, call the Pearson hotline, or call the school.
