SNOW DAY DOESN’T STOP TEACHING AND LEARNING AT BISHOP KELLY

No Netflix, skiing or gaming for Bishop Kelly High students on Snow Day. The building was closed Thursday, but Bishop Kelly staff kept teaching — virtually — with online assignments. Educators took attendance and stuck to calendar and curriculum pace using technology and education apps. Rather than canceling school for a fifth time, principal Mike Caldwell decided to host an online-learning day. The calendar is sufficiently padded to meet state attendance requirements, but Caldwell didn’t want students to miss another day of learning. “Every day a student misses is significant, especially on an advanced-placement track,” Caldwell said.
