As we enter the last few weeks of the school year, parents and caregivers continue to be key education partners with their child’s school. This year, thousands of families have participated in the school district’s quarterly AKS at Home initiative. Through live, grade-specific Zoom sessions, recorded sessions, and helpful tipsheets, families of students in grades K-5 are learning ways to help their children practice the key skills they are learning in language arts and math, whether students are learning at home or at school. The sessions are designed to reinforce key skills for each elementary grade level that students should master for success in the content areas of language arts and mathematics.
The last round of live virtual K-5 sessions for the 2020-21 school year is planned for March 22 to April 2 to support learning in the 4th nine weeks of the year. (See the schedule below.) Sessions are hosted by parent instructional coordinators and parent outreach liaisons who staff Parent Centers in the district’s Title I schools and teachers throughout the districts. Spanish interpretation will be provided. The sessions are open to all GCPS families.
Register for the grade-specific Zoom sessions on the AKS at Home webpage.
