HAPS Families - The First Day of School is finally here! Just a reminder about Car, Bus and Bike Riders as well as those who Walk to school. NO ONE can enter via the front door. Bike Riders & Walkers will enter via the Bus line/circle drive entrance.

Hi guys! Tomorrow is the big day. School FINALLY starts. If you are Face to Face, show up with your CHARGED Chromebook in the case we gave you (it’s okay if you stick it inside another bag), your forms book all filled out (don’t tear out pages!), and a water bottle would be a good idea. I would also check my email and make sure I could log in to the Lincoln Learning site. Virtual kiddos: tomorrow, log in to Lincoln Learning (your user name and password and the link are in your school email). You need to go in to each class you have and do whatever the teacher said for attendance. You have to do this EVERY school day for EVERY class, even if your teacher lets you work ahead. After you take attendance, just go do the work the teacher left for you! If you have a problem logging in, email me. If you have a problem with the work for a particular class, email that teacher. Everyone is learning this together. As we get more used to it, we will add more. We may start having zoom meetings and such. For now, we are keeping things as simple as possible. If you have logged in to Lincoln and didn’t see any work, most teachers haven’t made their work visible yet. It will be there! Let me know what questions you have!!
