With the current COVID-19 school and business-related closures, you might think that things have slowed down in schools. Not so! When the announcement to transition to distance learning was made on March 13, OLMC faculty were ready to make the pivot to a new way of learning. Teachers had been preparing for several weeks to be ready to make the switch. Teachers have sought parent input for the best ways to help reach their children. Our small school size has allowed us to be most responsive to the needs of our students and families while still working toward our high academic standards. While there have been a few bumps along the way (WiFi doesn't always cooperate!), families have noted:
"I think everything is going very well and keeping the kids working just like a school day."
"We think that regular everyday e-meetings are very helpful not only for teaching outcomes but for reducing children's anxiety related to the lack of close, personal contact with colleagues & teachers. We're positively surprised how well the very quick (almost overnight) transition to e-learning panned out. "
"Especially impressed with [my child's teachers]; they are in constant contact with me about [his]' progress."
"I feel everyone is working hard to make this work!"
