snowSMART Learning in Christian County
What is snowSMART Learning?
snowSMART Learning is a non-traditional instruction program
allowing students to continue learning from the home via
technology. snowSMART can be utilized on days when students are out
of school due to snow/ice, other weather-related closings or
widespread illness. When all other options have been exhausted, the
Superintendent will decide when days are designated as
snowSMART.
We kindly ask students and parents to please keep in mind that
snowSMART Learning is a new program. CCPS will continue to look for
innovative ways to improve student learning. Feel free to contact
your child's principal for questions about the snowSMART Learning
program.
Accessing School
Assignments
On snowSMART Days, assignments for students can be accessed
through Google Classroom and/or by visiting a teacher's classroom
website. Communication on student assignments can vary by a
student's teacher and/or school. Student login information will be
communicated to the student prior to the use of a snowSMART Day.
Students will have the option of paper-based assignments. If you
are without internet access, the local library is a great resource
for available technology (computers, printers,
etc.).
Accountability & Teacher Availability
Teachers will discuss expectations with students, prior to the use
of snowSMART. Students will be required to meet expectations and
fulfill assignment requirements on snowSMART Days. Some teachers
may communicate via tools such as email or Remind 101.
Communication may vary by teacher and/or school. School specific
snowSMART plans will be communicated by your child's school. Hours
of teacher availability are from 8-11 AM and 12-3
PM.
