Google Meets for Video Conferencing: Guidelines for Families

We will be using Google Hangouts/Meets for online video meetings. Here is a document with Guidelines for Families . We have heard from many parents regarding permission to video conference with your child. If you have not already, p lease contact us if you would not like your child to participate for any reason. Ms. Westbrook and Ms. Berry have set up book group meetings to check in with students. Invitations for meetings have been sent to students' emails. A student can also request meetings outside of scheduled meetings. Thank you for your continued support.

Please remember to check your email daily and ask questions as they come up!

The blog spot is: pawlc.blogspot.com Thank you & stay healthy! Ms. W & Mr. P
