Dear Families,
The Illinois State Board of Education has provided districts latitude to schedule up to 5 non-instructional “planning days” to support this period of remote learning. On these days, teachers will receive technology coaching and/or have the opportunity to collaborate and plan lessons with department, team, and grade-level colleagues. The district has scheduled a planning day next Monday, April 13. Students will return to remote learning Tuesday, April 14.
Respectfully,
HCUSD 5
