Remote Learning Environment, Friday March 5, 2021
Friday, March 5, has been rescheduled to a Remote Learning Day for Hinsdale Central School.
This scheduling change is being made due to the number of classroom and substitute teachers who are reporting a reaction to the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. Over 100 Hinsdale Central classroom teachers, substitute teachers and paraeducators were vaccinated on Thursday afternoon and evening. We are transitioning to remote learning because of a shortage of available substitutes in relation to the number of staff presenting a reaction to the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. In addition, this transition to remote learning is to maintain continuity of instruction through a remote learning environment.
On Friday morning, students should login to Canvas for instructions. We anticipate that most of our teachers will be engaging their students in synchronous instruction. However, depending on the severity of the reactions to the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, some of our classes may feature asynchronous learning. Our teachers will communicate their plans for the day to their students.
Thank you
William C. Walsh, Principal
Hinsdale Central High School
