E-Learning  |  March 30 - April 9

We are only using the blog for your schedule of events (which will also be posted in Google Classroom). Everything you need to access is in Google Classroom. Get in the habit of checking it on a regular basis (at least a few times each week).

If you access materials through Google Classroom and do them electronically, you will submit the assignments in Google Classroom. If you choose to pick up a paper copy, there are TWO ways to turn your materials in (Please wait until you have everything finished for the packets before submitting.): take a picture and email it to arusk@rccu1.net OR mail it to RCHS Attention: Amy Rusk.

Google Classroom

It is very important that you log in to Google Classroom through your school email account. You need to fill out the survey in Classroom for Comp I. If the quarantine continues, everything we do will be in Google Classroom and on Google Drive. There is absolutely NO NEED for you to have a paper copy UNLESS you do not have access to the internet at home...then those students will be allowed to pick up a paper copy from the high school. We will keep in touch with you over the next week and update you as soon as we know something. For now, please continue working on the 3 assignments already assigned for this week and next week. Happy corona-cation!

E-Learning: March 17 to March 27

E-Learning: March 17 to March 27

3 options for completing the work assigned for Comp I over the next 2 weeks:

1. If you have a computer and printer at home, you can print the materials and write directly on them. 
2. If you just have a computer or your phone, you can open the documents, create your own reading log on a piece of paper, answer the questions on a piece of paper for the Book Review, and rewrite the sentences correctly on a piece of paper for the Grammar Proofreading.
3. If you do not have a phone or computer to view the documents, you can pick up a paper copy at RCHS anytime starting March 18th from 8:00 am - 3:00 pm.
