LEAD Academy

1 down, 179 to go. Thank you so much for all your patience and hard work today to kick off virtual learning. There were some hiccups that will slowly work their way out but, overall, it was a great day 1. We look forward to getting back at it tomorrow. Also, Greenville County spread rate was labeled as medium again today so we will continue to plan to follow our updated reopening timeline found here: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/883375/8-26_Updated_Reopening_Timeline.pdf

Are you ready for Monday? Use this Ready for Monday checklist to find out: 1. Have you joined your student(s) class class dojo accounts? 2. Has your child logged into their new chromebook? 3. Has your child joined all of their google classroom classes including their elective classes? 4. Do you have an alarm set so you are up and awake and ready to learn before 8:00? 5. Have you watched your teachers' Virtual meet the teacher nearpod? If you need access to Class Dojo and Google Classroom codes, those can be found at the top of our Covid Central page: https://www.myleadacademy.com/o/lead-academy/page/covid-19-central

Gears Update: GEARS is looking forward to returning to some type of "normalcy" and serving children on-site at Lead Academy. However, due to the current numbers of COVID-19 cases in Greenville county, GEARS is currently offering virtual academic assistance to 1st -6th grade students. When Lead Academy opens the facility for face-to-face instruction, we will also offer a hybrid model for after school services. If Lead opens two days per week face-to-face and three days virtual, GEARS will be available for face-to-face after school from 2:15 pm - 6:00 pm for the days your child is on campus, and will offer virtual academic assistance on the days they attend school virtually.

M. Judson Booksellers in downtown Greenville is hosting a book fair for us. Tell them you are with Lead Academy and we will receive a percentage of the sale. Thanks M. Judson! @mjudsonbooksellers
