Lakeside Lightning, 

The School of Tomorrow, Today! 

We had an excellent turnout for our "gleaning" project with the NJ Farmers Against Hunger on Monday, September 21, 2020. We gleaned about 4 large containers of peppers for area food banks and community centers. Everyone who participated enjoyed the experience and the representatives from Rowan College and NJ Farmers Against Hunger were so grateful for our assistance. We will let you know when the next event will be taking place. 

We are getting prepared for the upcoming transition to Hybrid and Virtual Learning Experience on October 13. Our administrative team has visited area schools and has been working collaboratively with the district administration on finalizing plans for the schedule as well as the building preparation. We will be doing a video shortly to describe the Hybrid and Virtual Learning experience so that everyone is aware of the procedures and expectations. This is all unchartered territory but we are ready for the challenge!

Sixth grade student Ja’Tionna is ready for Virtual 

Lakeside Lightning, 

The School of Tomorrow, Today! 

We finished our first two day of the Virtual Experience! Our staff and students are poised to turn this obstacle into an opportunity. The staff have been very impressed with attendance and the students' ability to complete assignments. We look forward to improving as we go along and would love your feedback! 

Towards the end of this week we will be sending out specific updates with our Virtual Attendance and Discipline Policy. In the meantime, please be advised that teachers are taking attendance during every period and parents will be contacted when a student misses a class. In addition, our discipline policy has not changed due to the Virtual Experience. Therefore, students will be held accountable for actions that violate our Code of Conduct.

At this point, all of your teachers should have provided you with a link to their first Google Meet, as well, the class code to their Google Classroom along with the time you are to attend.   We recommend that you have a work area for your Chromebook, a pencil and paper, and your class schedule.  

There has been a slight change from the initial Chromebook login message.  If you are having trouble logging in to your Chromebook please use this password: BoltMMDD (Month and date of your birthday).  You will then be prompted to change your password which must contain at least 8 characters with a combination of upper and lower case along with a character.  If you are having technical difficulties, please contact support@millville.org
