Greetings, Loma Verde Wildcat Families!

As we begin Week 3 of distance learning, we trust that you’ve started to establish structures and routines to support learning at home.  With our students using technology more than ever before, challenges will obviously occur.  Remember to take deep breaths!  Our team of dedicated teachers will be here to assist you along the way, as we’re all in this together.

At the beginning of this school year, each teacher taught a unit of study regarding digital citizenship.  Our team will continue to remind students of expected norms regarding digital safety.  To the extent possible, we also ask parents to monitor the online activity of your child.

Below are some great free resources for parents to support online learning and digital citizenship.
