Families & Community
Welcome to MPS Online
Families are so important to the success of online learners. You are a partner in your students education. Your support and encouragement will set your student up for a successful online learning experience.
-
Make sure your student has a quiet place to learn, free of the distractions of daily life (TV, radio, adult conversations, video games, or other electronic devices).
-
Quiet spaces allow your students to focus on their lessons and give their teachers their full attention. Those background noises can be heard by others in the class as well, so please, makes sure that learning spaces have quiet backgrounds.
-
-
Set timers for all of their classes and small groups, to ensure that they make it to every meeting, every day (K-8).
-
Check their work, every day.
-
Google docs are easy to turn in blank. Make sure that the work is done before it gets submitted. Just because it was turned in, does not mean it was completed.
-
-
Be an advocate for your student, just don't do it in the middle of a lesson.
Please, save your comments or concerns for a private meeting with the teacher, or in an email, sent at the end of the school day.
Being involved in your child's school helps your student both academically and socially, as it gives you a voice in how we can best serve our communities, both at school and on a broader scale.
