Bluewater parents,

Thank you for continuing this online learning adventure with us. Please continue to follow your teachers guidelines for completion of assignments. Slow down and take your time on Odysseyware. Many of your teachers have reported that students have almost completed their coursework. Remember the grades you receive for math and reading come from the Odysseyware platform. Beginning next week, we will have the special area teachers posting assignments as well. We wanted everyone to have this week to become accustomed to online learning with the core subjects. Again follow your homeroom teachers lead. If you have not accessed your online curriculum yet, there is still time especially since we will now be off campus through May 1. Be sure to check out the many tutorial videos and tip sheets on the county website. If you have not heard from your teacher, their email address is available from our website. Again thank you for following your teachers' recommendations. Thank you for your continued support of Bluewater and have a great evening.
