Distance Learning is off to a great start! We appreciate your patience and perseverance as we jump into a new and different experience.
If your child is continuing to have difficulty logging in, please email edtech@piedmontschools.org. We have a team of amazing educators working hard to help who can be reached at this email address.
As your Pre-k thru fourth-grader accesses our online distance learning hub, he/she will often have the opportunity to do a short practice game or activity on an outside site. The site may offer a "create an account" option -- that is completely up you as a parent.
There may be times that your student can't access an outside site game or activity because of the device they are using. Some sites have free games when using a computer, but require an account on an i-pad. No worries! These activities are not "required", just for practice.
Your student won't always have an "assignment" to turn in.
Teachers will be accessing iStation (PK-4th grade) and Reflex (2nd-4th grades) to check on your child's progress.
Above all, remember, our goal is engagement and practice. These times are stressful enough right now. If you're having trouble accessing something, set it aside. Send us an email at edtech@piedmontschools.org and we'll help as best we can. If you are having difficulty with your school-issued device or are in need of a device, email help@piedmontschools.org.
