More than 21,075 students, teachers, staff, and stakeholders participated in an inclement weather survey to determine how to make-up two days of instruction. Approximately 63% of the respondents selected virtual learning. As a result, the DeKalb County School District will implement virtual learning during the weeks of February 27th – March 6th and March 8th – March 15th. Students will be given five school days to complete and submit each virtual assignment.
On February 26th and March 7th, teachers will provide an overview of the virtual learning assignments and provide hard copies as requested. Kindergarten students will receive hard copies of their virtual learning assignments on February 26th and March 7th. All students in grades 1-12 should access their virtual learning assignments through their VERGE accounts. If your child is in 1-12 and you would like their assignments in hard copy, please let their teacher know or sign and return the bottom of this letter. Please see below for details on how to access the assignments.
If you have any questions about the virtual learning assignments, please contact your child’s teachers via email. Please call 678-874-6902 if you have additional questions. Thank you for your continued support.
