Dear Parents/Guardians,
The past few years in education have been quite the journey for our students. At this time Superior North Catholic District School Board invites you to consider registering your child(ren) to participate in the virtual Summer Learning Program at Superior North Catholic District School Board. It would be our pleasure to support your child through the three-week program to continue their learning through hands-on learning opportunities focused on numeracy and literacy skills and real-world STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) learning.
The three-week program will begin on Monday, July 4 with an orientation “Welcome to the SNCDSB Virtual Summer Learning” assembly. Students will be connecting to their peers and educators learning virtually using Google Classroom and Google Meet.
Parents/Guardians will be informed of updates to the program through the SNCDSB Website. Weekly schedules, contact information and photographs of student learning will be shared throughout the three-week program through the SNCDSB Blog and Social Media Platforms. Each student registered will receive an SNCDSB Virtual Summer Learning 22 Discovery Bag. Within the Discovery bag will be the supplies students will need throughout the three-week program. These supplies are for students to keep and use to support their learning.
To ensure students are digitally safe and secure throughout the program students will use their SNCDSB board-issued devices. SNCDSB will ensure that students' devices are in good working condition to actively participate in their programming. Students are expected to follow Policy and Procedure 701, Acceptable use of Technology by Students. Educators will also use a Chromebook Management tool, GoGuardian, to support students' learning using board-issued Chromebooks. The tool will help students and educators during synchronous learning time.
We look forward to learning and educating our student’s heart, mind and soul from July 4 - 22 through the virtual Summer Learning Program. If you have any questions please contact Sarah Clowes [email protected] or Lindsay Costa [email protected]. We thank you for this opportunity and look forward to working with you and your child(ren).
Kind Regards,
Sarah Clowes
Virtual Summer Learning Lead
