6th Grade CRMS Remote Conferencing

August 30th - September 3rd, 2021

Guide to success to get through the remote conferencing week

Dear Eagle families,

Thank you for your time and flexibility in preparing for remote conferencing this week. I know that students not being able to attend school causes an imposition on our families and we do not take this decision lightly. In order to maintain safety and keep our school door open, we needed to do this.

We have been asked if the remote conferencing is optional and unfortunately, the answer is no. All 6th graders are required to stay home this week. Our 6th grade teachers will also be working remotely as we work to slow the spread on campus; so honestly, even if you were to show up, there would be no teachers/classes for you to attend on campus. 6th graders may return to campus on Tuesday, September 7th.

It is my hope that you find all of the information you need here to ensure a successful school week where learning continues.

School Day Schedule

For remote conferencing at CRMS, we will follow our regular bell schedule every day of this week.

Last Friday, we explained to students that they must get on to zoom for the 4 core classes AND Advisory period so they knew what classes to attend on Zoom. If they have forgotten, it may be helpful to print out or write out the schedule, circling the periods students will join on Zoom.

It is critical that students log on to Zoom for ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies AND Advisory periods so that we have enough minutes each day to count for students' attendance.

All elective classes will have asynchronous assignments found on Google Classroom. These teachers may provide an options for students to join classes by Zoom as well!

Early Release Wednesday NOT Early Release on September 1st

In order to ensure students have enough instructional time, we will run a normal schedule for 6th grade only. Follow the same regular bell schedule you will Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Lunch (1:09-1:39pm) and Food Service

We will utilize the staff we typically use on normal days to be available for families who want to pull into the bus lane to pick up their lunch.

Tech Support

If you cannot get on Zoom or have a time sensitive tech issue, please email ALL of the following staff:

1) Teacher of the class your are trying to troubleshoot

2) Wendy.Sturdevant@leanderisd.org (Principal)

3) Monica.DiazCarle@leanderisd.org (Assistant Principal)

4) Amanda.Mireles@leanderisd.org (Instructional Coach)

By emailing everyone on the list, the first available CRMS staff member will respond to support. Just emailing the teacher may not get you the needed support in a short period of time since they are teaching.

Laptops/Tech

We spent Friday also ensuring any student who needed a device got one before they came home. In the event that we missed your student or if you struggle with internet, please email your student's Assistant Principal, Monica Diaz Carle @ Monica.DiazCarle@leanderisd.org

If you need tech support we will get you connected to our campus technician as soon as possible. Just call (512) 570 - 3555 or (512) 570 - 0566.
