New Learning Plan for Montpelier Roxbury Schools

By
The school has created a plan for learning at home while school buildings are closed.  School buildings will remain closed for the rest of the school year, but learning will continue.

You will receive more information from your child's teacher.  Here are the big ideas:
  • The more important thing is for teachers to keep strong relationships with students and make sure students are healthy and safe. 
  • Each school will have its own plan. 
  • Schools will be taking attendance.   Every time your child participates in online learning or talks with a teacher this will count towards attendance.  Your child's teacher will have more information about how attendance is taken.  
  • Our plan may need to change in the future to meet students' needs. Please let us know what works and what does not work for you!
  • Students will have less academic work than usual. 
  • Your child's online learning can be accessed through this site: MRPS Remote Learning

We want to support you during this difficult time.  Please let us know how we can help.
