STUDENT EXPECTATIONS FOR AMI INSTRUCTION:
We understand that many families may experience challenges in scheduling. The most important expectation is completing and submitting assignments as close as possible to when they are due. Teachers will offer digital face to face lessons with students 2-4 days per week. Students should make an effort to attend live instruction. Sessions will be recorded. Download suggested student expectations and AMI schedules here: https://www.pcssd.org/o/pcssd/browse/119417
