Sheils said the plan moves from the emergency response of last semester to “an adaptive and strategic response” to the ongoing pandemic. Elements include:
- Daily attendance will be taken
- Defined daily instructional time with clear student schedules
- Grade level assignments and assessments
- Clear and frequent communication
- Traditional grading and learning feedback
- Care and attention to the social wellbeing of (every) student
“Student learning, as well as the safety of all during the pandemic, are non-negotiable for Sonoma Valley Unified School District,” Shiels said.
The Board will consider the recommendation on July 21, and may hold an additional meeting on July 28 for a final vote.
