Following the recommendations of public health officials, state, and federal requirements, and trends from past pandemics, St. Martin’s Episcopal School is prepared for potential interruptions to On-Campus Learning. Should conditions relative to the pandemic change, and it is necessary to suspend On-Campus Learning, we will transition to Virtual Learning or Blended Learning (Off-Campus Learning).
If my family chooses not to send my child(ren) to school, what will Off-Campus Virtual Learning look like?
Students who are advised by a physician or are unable to attend school will be able to participate in school remotely through a combination of asynchronous and some synchronous lessons.
If there is a mandated school shutdown, what will Off-Campus Virtual Learning look like?
Virtual Learning will look significantly different than the Virtual Learning we implemented last spring. We are investing in software and hardware solutions to make the Off-Campus Virtual Learning experience as close to our On-Campus Learning experience as possible. Through Off-Campus Virtual Learning, students will follow a developmentally-appropriate schedule and will interact with teachers and classmates through a mix of live and recorded content. We will continue to educate the whole child, encourage the pursuit of individual passions, promote life balance, build confidence, encourage play as a foundation of learning, and provide multi-sensory learning experiences.
