Our remote learning adventure has begun! Named Colloquia (“conversations” in Latin) by our Classics Department faculty, the program is designed for our youngest Early Childhood learners through our graduating seniors. Faculty and staff members have spent the past 10 days assembling a thoughtful remote learning curriculum and creating a new schedule, while our coaches and PE teachers have designed practices and workouts to ensure our students have important physical activity scheduled into their days. There will be shared community and assembly times, as well as Meeting for Worship. Although we anticipate some challenges and technical glitches, we expect exciting and creative, collaborative learning to transpire—and we may even experience some wonderful surprises along the way.
We look forward to sharing what our students are up to as the days unfold. For now, please enjoy a glimpse inside some of our faculty and students’ remote learning spaces!
