DCPS will use an NTI day Tuesday. Message from DCPS:
DCPS schools will be closed for in-person learning on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, and Tuesday will be a DCPS@Home Day (#1). Elementary students will refer to their pre-printed packets or visit www.dcps.org/athome for your DAY #1 assignment. Middle and high school students will follow the Google Meet schedule provided by their teachers. Information details for DAY #1 are posted at www.dcps.org/athome.

If experiencing loss of power, we understand the issues this could bring and allow for students to have 5 days to complete assignments for participation. If you need to communicate with your student’s teacher for any reason, please contact them via email or Talking Points. Elementary students can complete all assignments from the folder previously sent home.

Elementary Students
Because of our holiday break, elementary students do not have Chromebooks and chargers. Teachers will also be available at 9 AM for a Google Meet. Schools will be sending out instructions for how to join Google Meets via Talking Points. If possible, you may use an alternate device (phone or personal computer) to log in to Google Meet but this is not a requirement. Our teachers are available for any support or guidance throughout the day.
