The MSD of Lawrence Township is committed to providing a high quality, off-site learning experience for families who are not comfortable having their child on campus during the fall of 2020 as result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Those who prefer an off-site virtual model will be committing to either nine weeks or a full semester of remote instruction. Students in Kindergarten through grade six will commit to nine weeks of remote learning, at the end of which they will have the option to return to on-campus instruction. Students in grades seven through twelve will commit to a full semester of virtual programming. At the conclusion of the semester, they will have the option to return to on-campus instruction. The application window to request virtual instruction or to request a return to in-person instruction is currently closed.

In response to emergency closures due to inclement weather or other temporary events, Lawrence Township has the capacity to call for an “eLearning Day”. During an eLearning Day, students will not report to school and will attend class virtually via their 1:1 device from home.

In the event of an eLearning Day all LT students can expect:

1.    To connect with their classroom teachers Synchronously via Microsoft Teams.

2.    To have virtual assignments posted to their Learning Management System
        (Seesaw - Grades K-4 / Canvas - Grades 5-12)

3.    To have attendance taken synchronously during & throughout the day.

The expectation for LT Staff & Students is that an eLearning Day replaces a traditional instructional day through distance learning. LT Staff are trained & equipped to ensure a high quality learning experience for students that respects the value of a full day of instruction.
