ONLINE CLASSROOM MARCH 23 to APRIL 05

To Students -- Hi everyone, I hope this message finds you healthy and that you enjoyed your break as best as possible during uncertain and unprecedented times. I found outside time really grounding and helpful. The consistent message from the TDSB since schools closed has been that learning and course delivery will continue as best as possible, and for my 12s, that you will graduate.

Ultimately, my main message is that I am here to support you in finishing your year. Remember to practice all of the recommended protocols set out by public health in order to move through this pandemic as quickly as possible. If we all do our part, we will return back to our full lives much quicker. Remember to support each other and to keep your physical and mental health as your top priority.

To that end, over the next 2 days I will be building the online classroom for all of my courses right here on the homepage (BELOW). I will also establish daily "office hours" when students can reach me for direct support via mark.bauer@tdsb.on.ca.

Remember, the protocol for teacher-student communication is to be conducted through our @student.tdsb.on.ca & @tdsb.on.ca email addresses. Please follow this protocol.
