Keyport School District Pandemic Management Plan April 2020 Keyport School District Pandemic Management Plan April 2020 Last Updated April 7, 2020 Context On Friday, March 6th, 2020, a NJDOE Broadcast was initiated in which school districts were informed that in the event of a mandated close of school due to the potential spread of a contagious virus named COVID-19, remote instruction would be considered appropriate educational services and count towards the required 180 days of attendance. This plan was assembled to provide a framework for maintaining essential functions and services during an inevitable elongated school closing. This plan does not replace or supersedes any existing emergency plan approved by the Keyport Board of Education, but supplements it meeting the specific needs of this particular emergency and timeline. 1 Table of Contents Chain of Command………………………………...p. 4 Essential Personnel………………………………...p. 4 Demographic Profile……………………………….p. 5 E-Learning Plans and Procedures……...…………pgs. 6-15 Additional Special Education and Related Services Considerations.……………………………………...p. 16-19 Guidance and Social & Emotional Support……...p. 20 Teacher Aide Procedures……………………….….p. 21 Remote Learning Instructional Support……….…pgs. 22-25 Professional Development Plan…....……………...p. 26 Technology Support……………………………..….p. 27 Equitable Access…………………………………….p. 28 Meeting Nutritional Needs………………………...p. 29 Communication……………………………………..p. 30 Advanced Cleanliness Protocols…………………..p. 31 Related Policies and Regulations………………….p. 32 Human Resources.…………………………………..p. 33 Facilities……………………………………………....p. 34 2 Members of the Keyport E-Learning Management Leadership Team Name Position Contact Information Lisa Savoia, Ed.D.

Of that total, there are * English Language Learners and 60 special education students. Additionally, there are currently * homeless students and 160 students receiving free or reduced meals. *n is less than 10 5 Remote Learning Plan Goal: To implement an alternative instructional process that is flexible yet rigorous to ​ meet the standard for structured learning time so that school days missed for a pandemic crisis can be counted towards the state requirement of instruction for the calendar year. This requires several objectives, flexibility in staffing roles and responsibilities, and may have different needs depending on grade level. General Plan for Remote Learning Days ● Remote Learning Days are designed to reduce the impact and disruption to the school calendar and student learning and achievement in the event of a pandemic emergency. ● On Remote Learning Days, a structured learning day will be provided so that students will continue to learn materials that are relevant to the current unit of study. While this coursework will be completed outside the traditional classroom setting, it will serve as an extension of previous learning and extend to new concepts. ● A Remote Learning Day is defined as a day that students and teachers (as well as support staff) stay home, but is considered a school day by New Jersey State Law. ● Staff members will bring home their district-issued chromebook and charging wire each day going forward in case the need for virtual learning occurs outside of school hours. Staff members will ensure that they have all necessary passwords to all district programs as well as a list of student usernames and passwords. ○ Any teacher whose curriculum is tied directly to an online platform (HMH - Ed Your Friend in Learning (SS 6-12, Science K-12), Connect Ed, Smarty Ants, Razz Kids, Newsela, My Perspectives, IXL, and LinkIt) should ensure that all students can log into each virtual class ○ All teachers should create a Google Classroom. Google Classrooms should be shared with all students and check that parents/students have access. Please invite your direct supervisor AND principal to each classroom. ● Any day that is deemed a Remote Learning Day will be stated clearly via the district’s automated notification system (Honeywell) by the Superintendent as well as indicated clearly on the district website. 6 General Procedures for Remote Learning Days Grades PreK -2 Teacher Procedures: ● From 9:00am - 3:00pm all staff will be available for students and families to contact virtually as needed. (w/the exception of Friday 1:15-3:00, teacher collaboration time) ● For PreK - 2, all work will be assembled in folders and organized for student completion. Backpacks will be sent home with materials as well as the folders for these grade levels. All work should also be uploaded in the Google Folders that have been shared with you. ● By 9:00am each day, the teacher will post the daily assignments for the class using a Google Classroom or Class Dojo. The teacher should include the daily special in their plan so that parents and students can visit that teacher’s Google Classroom/Website for the daily assignment (example: Today is Art! Please visit Mr. Morelo’s Google Classroom for today’s activity.) ● Teachers will send home instructions to parents on accessing Google Classroom and show their students in school as soon as possible. This will be posted on the teacher’s website as well. ● From 9:30am - 12:30pm faculty are expected to be supporting students working on daily assignments. Students should be completing assignments during this time. 12:30pm - 1:15pm will be considered “lunch” for all students and faculty. From 1:15 - 3:00pm, teachers and faculty will prepare their lessons for the next day, and utilize Zoom and other technology to work collaboratively with Special Education teachers and other specialists to ensure all student needs are met. ● Teachers will be available to answer parent emails from 1:15 until 3:00pm daily. ● In the case that a teacher is ill and must use a sick day, it should be entered into Aesop by 7am on the day of the absence in which a proxy will be assigned to conduct the lessons for that day. ● In the case that a teacher has a power loss, he/she should communicate that directly to the Principal as soon as possible and a proxy will be assigned to conduct the lessons for the day. ● Lesson plans should be created and posted on the Genesis Platform as done regularly, but align with the shortened time frame and be specific to virtual learning. ● Assessment and monitoring of understanding for remote learning will look different than in a traditional classroom, but teachers are responsible for monitoring and documenting student completion of assignments and 7 participation in collaborative learning. Students in primary grades can be directed to turn in completed work for assessment upon their return to school. ● Teachers will provide specific and detailed instructions about the assignments that will include: ○ Morning Message / Greeting / Engagement Activity ○ Objective/Purpose of Assignment ○ Description of the tasks including instructional support and directions and resources required to complete the assignments ○ Due Dates ○ They should also include: ● Screencasts or Podcasts to support learning as needed ● Instructional videos or helpful links, as needed ● With paper folders, the use of a QR Code that links to an instructional video would be helpful and easy for students to use. ● Teachers should look to utilize all instructional platforms in which the district has purchased and implemented. A number of free online platforms are available for use and can be found at https://sites.google.com/kpsdschools.org/kps-teacher-resources-for-remo/soci al-studies-resources . Teachers should not enroll students in new instructional ​ resources without the express permission from the Director of Curriculum. ● The use of Zoom or Google Hangouts is highly recommended to increase the student/teacher engagement with remote learning. Zoom is free for conferences up to 40 minutes in length, and can be a great way to simply provide “carpet time” for students to share with one another virtually and still feel connected to their teacher and peers.

  • Title: the Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher's Guide of 20Fh Century Physics
    REPORT NSF GRANT #PHY-98143318 Title: The Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher’s Guide of 20fhCentury Physics DOE Patent Clearance Granted December 26,2000 Principal Investigator, Brian Schwartz, The American Physical Society 1 Physics Ellipse College Park, MD 20740 301-209-3223 [email protected] BACKGROUND The American Physi a1 Society s part of its centennial celebration in March of 1999 decided to develop a timeline wall chart on the history of 20thcentury physics. This resulted in eleven consecutive posters, which when mounted side by side, create a %foot mural. The timeline exhibits and describes the millstones of physics in images and words. The timeline functions as a chronology, a work of art, a permanent open textbook, and a gigantic photo album covering a hundred years in the life of the community of physicists and the existence of the American Physical Society . Each of the eleven posters begins with a brief essay that places a major scientific achievement of the decade in its historical context. Large portraits of the essays’ subjects include youthful photographs of Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman among others, to help put a face on science. Below the essays, a total of over 130 individual discoveries and inventions, explained in dated text boxes with accompanying images, form the backbone of the timeline. For ease of comprehension, this wealth of material is organized into five color- coded story lines the stretch horizontally across the hundred years of the 20th century. The five story lines are: Cosmic Scale, relate the story of astrophysics and cosmology; Human Scale, refers to the physics of the more familiar distances from the global to the microscopic; Atomic Scale, focuses on the submicroscopic This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.

  • Criterions Article
    Tim Hauser, Tommy West & the Criterions By Charlie Horner and Pamela Horner Excepted in part from the forthcoming book, Springwood Avenue Harmony: The Unique Musical Legacy of Asbury Park’s West Side, Volume 2, 1946 - 1980 Long before Tim Hauser formed the internationally known group, Manhattan Transfer, and Tommy Picardo took the stage name Tommy West (of the renowned songwriting, performing and recording combination Cashman, Pistilli and West), the two were part of an endearing Jersey Shore doo wop group, the Criterions. Timothy DuPron Hauser was born December 12, 1941 in Troy, New York. He moved with his parents and sister Fayette to the Jersey Shore area when he was 7 years old. Living in Wanamassa, Ocean Township, about 2 miles northwest of Asbury Park, Tim attended St. Rose High School in Belmar. In high school he sang in the glee club and played left field for the school’s varsity baseball team. Early on, Tim Hauser developed an interest in black music, specifically rhythm & blues. “He would go into Asbury Park because they had the better record stores there,” Tim’s sister Fayette told Asbury Park Press columnist Chris Jordan. “He’d bring the song, the anxious crowds surged forward to see the records home and my parents had a big console group. Feeling crushed, the fans in the front pushed record player and it had big speakers. The first back and fights broke out. At that point, the concert record he brought home was ‘Bo Diddley sings Bo was stopped and order was restored. As the Teenag- Diddley.’ He put it on the record player and played ers started their second song, more fights broke out it over and over for days.

  • High School Partnerships: Dual Enrollment
    High School Partnerships: Dual Enrollment What Is Dual Enrollment? Qualified high school seniors are invited to participate in the Dual Enrollment Program at Brookdale Community College.* The Dual Enrollment Program allows students to complete up to 12 Brookdale credits during their senior year of high school.
