Things to think about
Schools have changed in the last year, the pandemic continues and it is unclear what s ahead, but asynchronous Wednesdays have served the district well this year, said Dr. Lura Hanks, superintendent. In asynchronous learning, the instruction is not in real time, but is available online.
Several adjustments have been made to when G-A schools are open to in-person learning over the course of the year so far, but virtual Wednesdays have been observed since day one at all grade levels.
They free teachers up to meet with parents, do collaborative planning with other teachers and give feedback to students anything that takes them out of the classroom on Wednesdays, Hanks said.
