Any school closure will be communicated via ParentSquare, Woodward Mill's website, GCPS website, and local news outlet. In the event that a school closure is necessary, the district could opt to hold a Digital Learning Day rather than using a snow make-up day. If the decision is made to hold a Digital Learning Day, it will be communicated as noted above, and the school and district processes for online learning will go into effect. If a decision is made to use a standard make-up day, students and staff will not be expected to access assignments online.
On a Digital Learning Day, teachers will post assignments on their Google Classroom pages. Elementary school assignments will be posted by 9:00AM.
Woodward Mill Elementary teachers will be monitoring their Google Classroom page throughout the day. If students or parents have any questions, please email your child's teacher if you have any trouble.
If you have multiple students attending Woodward Mill Elementary, each student is expected to participate. This means that each student is expected to log into their Google Classroom page individually.
If the power is out, a student may access the teacher's Google Classroom page when the power returns.
If a student does not have access to a computer or device (tablet, smartphone etc.), the student can take their school-issued Chromebook home (if the parent/guardian has signed the permission form sent home at the beginning of the school year). Student work will be expected to be turned in to the teacher digitally or in-person.
