Remote or Face to Face Choice Deadline

At this point in time you have had the opportunity to witness how your children are functioning either at school – with face to face learning, or from home – as part of the Remote Learning Program.  You now have the first of three opportunities, throughout the school year, to request a switch in your child’s learning location. The dates for changes are:

November 3rd, 2020

January 2021; and

March 2021.

If you are satisfied that your child is in the right learning location at this time – whether it is at Riddell or in the Remote Learning School – there is nothing you need to do – your child will remain in their present learning location.

For those who would like to have their child switch FROM – face to face learning at Riddell – TO the Remote Learning from home – OR – FROM Remote Learning to face to face  learning at Riddell

You now have the first of three opportunities, throughout the school year, to request a switch in your child’s learning location.

Your request for a change of location MUST be made on line in the Parent Portal – before 11:59 PM on Monday, October 12.

Once the form has been submitted in the Parent Portal, you will see a pop-up message that says, “Thank you for completing the form.” This is confirmation that your choice has been registered.

All parents requesting a switch will receive more information, such as teacher name and class assignment, before the transition date of Tuesday, November 3rd.  If you have not been contacted by November 3rd, please contact the school office.

Accessing the Parent Portal is the preferred way to make the switch. It provides a record for you of the change and automatically updates our records at the school.

If you require further assistance to make the switch, you can contact the school – this must be done no later than Friday, October 9th at 2:00 PM to receive help with making the switch. With Monday, October 12th being a school holiday, the school staff will not be available to help you with the change, and the only way to make changes on that date will be in the Parent Portal.

Again, there will be no change in the learning location for any student if the parent does not request the change by Monday, October 12th – at 11:59 PM.

This information is also available on the Board’s Web Portal and on Riddell’s web site.

Take care and be safe!
