Hello Golden Eagles and families!
Happy second day of school!! I hope that today has gone much more smoothly than several of you experienced yesterday. We continue to be diligently answering messages and phone calls in order to trouble-shoot any needs that you may be experiencing. Please continue to reach out to us with your questions.
I have three quick updates regarding today’s common themes: Webex links, Attendance systems and Wednesday processes.
Webex Links
You can access Webex by going to the Home or Syllabus section of your class Canvas. If you have difficulty, use the Teacher Webex Links document to get where you need to go using a browser of your choice.
Attendance Systems
Attendance is being taken during Webex times. If for some reason you cannot attend class, you must e-mail your teacher (parent or student) and complete any activities that are posted within Canvas later that day. Any student who has been marked absent (which is determined by not having attended webex or having completed the activity listed) by 9 am the following day will remain in the system as absent. This means that a robotic-generated phone call will go home to the family to alert them of non-attendance. If you want to excuse your child ahead of time because of something pre-planned (i.e. doctors apt, etc), please call our attendance line ((541) 355-7820) and leave a message. This line is checked frequently (approximately every 10 minutes) and the changes will be made. You can also e-mail us at [email protected].
Wednesday Process
On Wednesdays, all students have approximately 20 minutes of classwork to engage in per period. Students will need to check the Canvas classes for each period every Wednesday and complete the task listed. Attendance will be taken using turned in assignments that teachers designate for Wednesday. If students do not complete the tasks outlined on Wednesday for each class (except Advisory), they will be marked absent for that class.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. We are here to help.
Go Golden Eagles!
Ms. Birk
