Distant Learning Attendance & Grading Update

Posted: Apr 21, 2020

Good Afternoon Falcons,

I hope everyone is staying healthy and trying to enjoy some sunshine this week! I want to give you a couple of updates about attendance and grades for the remainder of the school year. Kindergarten through fifth grade students will be marked present for a day once they submit their work to their teacher. A student will be marked absent if they do not turn in their assignments for that day. Once they do submit their assignments to their teacher, we will go back into infinite campus and update their attendance for the day they were marked absent. Student’s final report cards will not have numerical grades.  Instead, they will reflect descriptive feedback and indicate if the student has or has not demonstrated understanding of the material during this time of distant learning. If you have any questions, you can reach out to your child’s teacher or email fairviewdps@gmail.com.

Make sure you are visiting our website at Fairview.dpsk12.org or find us on Facebook at Fairview Elementary School for updates and important information. Remember that you can go to the school Monday through Friday from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm to pick up meals for the day at the back door.

We miss all of our falcons and hope everyone is staying healthy and safe!

Best,

Mr. Layne
