Board considers reinstating weekly teacher schedule postings to boost parent communication
Summary
Board discussed restoring a COVID-era requirement for teachers to post weekly plans by Monday mornings so parents can quickly see student schedules without opening multiple Google Classrooms.
District staff proposed reviving a practice from the COVID period that required teachers to post weekly plans every Monday by 8:00 a.m., a step intended to simplify parental access to classroom activities. "If we had the schedule posted, you could just click on that," S1 (Staff member) said, describing a single schedule parents could use to view multiple children’s classes.
Board members said surveys and parent feedback favor regular districtwide updates and easier access to teacher plans. S7 (Committee member) noted that finding information across different Google Classrooms is onerous for parents and that a central weekly schedule would reduce burden. The board directed staff to include communications items and a potential sample schedule in the goals packet for review at the upcoming board meeting.
