What does my student do if there is an NTI Day?



Hello Thomas Nelson High School Families,

Your student has been working on their Excavating Gifts Course at home and in Care & Connect for the past several months. Today in Care & Connect your student's LEADER reviewed THIS SLIDE DECK to explore the protocol of their responsibilities as a student during an NTI Day. If you would like to see the slides and video your student watched, you can click the words "THIS SLIDE DECK" highlighted and underlined in blue above.

Today your student:
1)Watched a screencast explaining how weather decisions are made in our district.
2)Viewed the rubric in which they will be assessed on an NTI Day.
3)Picked to have either contact with their C&C LEADER on a Google Meet or a one on one phone call on an NTI Day.

Should an NTI Day occur, we have asked each student to make progress on their Excavating Gifts Course Project as well as have direct contact with their C&C LEADER for support. This Google Meet (individualized to the Care & Connect at occurring at 1 pm) would require the student to have access to the internet to complete. The intention behind the Google Meet is to provide space for students to gain feedback and support from their Care & Connect. Should your student not have reliable access to the internet in bad weather, they had the option today to sign up for a phone call directly with their Care & Connect LEADER (occurring from 2-3 pm). The intent behind the phone call is to provide another avenue of direct access for feedback and support while your student works on their project.

As a reminder, your student's Excavating Gifts Course is due on March 30 and will culminate in a presentation to your student's Care & Connect the last week of March.

We value and appreciate the support you provide our General each and every day. Feel free to reach out to your student's Care & Connect LEADER with any further questions about the Excavating Gifts Course or NTI Days.

YES.
