>>TARIK MINOR: JOINING US NOW IS DUVAL SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT DIANA GREENE HERE TO TALK ABOUT
THE SCHOOL
DISTRICT’S NEW.
>> A PLAN FOR SCHOOLS ONLINE
CLASSES. THAT’S RIGHT ALL 3 OF
US WOULD NORMALLY BE SITTING
OVER AT THE ANCHOR DESK
TOGETHER BUT TO FOLLOW CDC AND
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH GUIDELINES
WE ARE SOCIAL
DISTANCING AND WE’VE SET UP OUR
SEATS FOR AT LEAST 6 FEET APART
FROM EACH OTHER SO DOCTOR
GREENE THANK YOU FOR JOINING US
AND SO IS THE PLANE STILL ON
TRACK EVERYTHING SMOOTH SAILING
FOR THE SET UP ON MONDAY.
>>JOY PURDY: THE PLAN IS ON
TRACK. THOUSANDS OF TEACHERS
WENT THROUGH THEIR TRAINING AND
THEY DID
IT REMOTELY. WE ARE PLANNING TO
OPEN UP THE WEB SITE SUNDAY
EVENING WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE
GIVE TEACHERS AN OPPORTUNITY TO
GET INTO THERE.
SITE IN ADD INFORMATION THAT
THEY WANT TO ADD OR A WELCOME
BACK MESSAGE SO THAT WE CAN
START MONDAY READY TO GO.
AND YOU TALKED ABOUT
THE WEBSITE. WHAT IS THAT WEB
SITE ONE MORE TIME JUST SO
PEOPLE KNOW IT CAN THEY ACCESS
IT FROM THE DUVAL COUNTY
SCHOOLS SITE.
>> IT IS OUR DUEL COUNTY SCHOOL
SITE DO ALL CAN DO ALL SCHOOLS
DOT ORG. IF THEY STAY WILL SEE THE BANNER HOMEROOM BANNER AND
THEY CLICK ON THE HOMEROOM BANNER AND THEN LOOK FOR THEIR
GRADE LEVEL. >>TARIK MINOR: NOW THERE ARE SOME CYNICS OUT THERE WHO MAY
NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A LAPTOP OR
OR COMPUTER. WHAT IS BEING DONE
FOR
THE STUDENTS.
>> WELL FOR ELEMENTARY WE’VE
DEVELOP EDUCATIONAL PACKETS THE
PACKETS
ARE ONLY FOR STUDENTS WHO DO
NOT HAVE ONLINE ACCESS OR IF
THEY JUST WANT TO HAVE A PENCIL
PAPER
PACK IT. WE ARE STARTING OUR
LAPTOP DISTRIBUTION
TOMORROW SATURDAY. WE’VE BEEN
ASKING OUR PARENTS TO FILL OUT
THE SURVEY OF WHETHER THEY NEED
A LAPTOP OR NOT AND FROM THAT
INFORMATION.
WE HAVE SENT AN INVITE TO
PARENTS TO
5 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. THEIR
TIME TO COME AND PICK UP THEIR
LAPTOP. THEY NEED
TO BRING THEIR STUDENT TOMORROW
IS HIGH SCHOOL HIGH SCHOOL WILL
BE OUR MAJOR FOCUS
AND THEN EVERY OTHER DAY WE’RE
GOING TO KEEP ADDING SO MONDAY
WILL BE
MIDDLE SCHOOL AND THEN
WEDNESDAY, WE WILL FOCUS
WHETHER WE NEED TO DO MIDDLE
SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY. BUT WE
WILL KEEP GOING UNTIL WE DONE
OUR VERY BEST TO ENSURE THAT
STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS
TO TECHNOLOGY. AND WE ALSO KNOW
THAT THERE IS A PLAN IN PLACE
FOR THOSE STUDENTS WHO RELY ON
LUNCHES AND SNACKS FROM THE
DISTRICT ABSOLUTELY USING OUR
ELEMENTARY
NEIGHBORHOOD ROUTES.
TRANSPORTATION WILL START ON
THERE THEY WILL PROBABLY BEGIN
AT ABOUT 1030 GOING OUT TO THE
ELEMENTS SO ANY ELEMENTARY BUS
STOP IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE
YOUR BUS STOP DURING THE
NORMAL YEAR, MIDDLE SCHOOL AND
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS CAN COME
TO THAT ELEMENTARY BUS STOP OR
THEY CAN CONTINUE TO GO
TO THEIR SCHOOL BECAUSE WE’RE
STILL DOING CURBSIDE GRAB AND
GO AT THE SCHOOL.
BUT THE
EFFORT TO CONTINUE TO ENSURE
THAT WE GET TO AS MANY STUDENTS
AS WE POSSIBLY CAN FOR IT’S
LUNCH AND A SNACK.
>>TARIK MINOR: DEALING WITH
SOCIAL DISTANCING SELF
QUARANTINE IT’S PROBABLY PRETTY
DIFFICULT FOR SOME OF THESE
KIDS ARE PROBABLY MISS
THEIR FRIENDS. THEIR SCHOOL
ENVIRONMENT WHAT’S THE MESSAGE
FOR THOSE THOSE KIDS IN AND FOR
THOSE PARENTS IN THIS NEW WORLD
THAT WE’RE IT.
>> WELL IT IS GOING TO BE A
CHALLENGE WE ASKED EVERYONE
NEXT WEEK TOO
PRACTICE, PATIENCE. IT’S NOT
LIKE BRICK AND MORTAR SCHOOL
SCHOOL SHOW STARTS AT 08:00AM
AND BRICK AND MORTAR AND WE
EXPECT EVERYONE TO BE THERE AT
08:00AM WHEN YOU’RE ONLINE IT
STARTS MONDAY. BUT IF YOU CAN’T LOG-IN UNTIL 2 O’CLOCK PM IT’S OKAY YOUR TEACHER HAS ALREADY
PUT INFORMATION IN ABOUT WHAT
YOU NEED TO DO.
SO IT FOR MANY OF OUR SONS
THEIR USE TO ONLINE EDUCATION
BUT ELEMENTARY IS
THE ONE. GREAT SPANNED THAT
THAT IS NOT AS COMMON
AND IT. IT WHERE WE’RE LOOKING
AT THIS IS GOING TO BE A NEW
JOURNEY IS GOING TO BE AN
ADVENTURE AND WE ENCOURAGE
PARENTS TO. CONNECT WITH
THE TEACHER. THE TEACHER HAS
THE CAPABILITY OF SPEAKING TO
IF
THEY HAVE THE AUDIO CAPABILITY
ON THEIR LAPTOP WHICH IF
THEY’RE RECEIVING FROM THE
DISTRICT THEY WILL HAVE THAT
CAPABILITY. IN ADDITION, WE
WILL BE CALLING STUDENTS
IS IT. OTHER PERSONNEL SUCH AS
GUIDANCE COUNSELORS DEAN’S THEY
ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO BE
REACHING OUT 2 STUDENTS OUR
GOAL IS TO.
TALK TO EVERY SINGLE STUDENT
SOME TIME NEXT WEEK TOO
FIND OUT IF THEY’RE DOING OK IS
THERE SOMETHING
THEY NEED WE ACTUALLY I’VE
ACTUALLY TODAY BEEN
COMMUNICATING WITH
A PARENT WHOSE CHILD IS NOT
FEELING. WELL, TOMORROW’S THEIR
DAY TO PICK UP THEIR LAPTOP AND
WE’RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW
DO WE GET
A LAPTOP TO THAT STUDENT
BECAUSE THEIR SENIOR WE WANT TO
ENSURE THAT OUR
SENIORS HAVE EVERY OFF AFTER 2
NUTTY TO GRADUATE
ON TIME WHICH WITH THE A
CANCELLATION OF
STATE ASSESSMENTS ALL THEY NEED
TO HAVE THIS YEAR FOR
GRADUATION IS A 2 POINT O GPA
AND 24 CREDITS
SO IT IS IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO
LOG IN ON INTO THEIR COURSES
AND KEEP UP WITH THEIR COURSES.
>>JOY PURDY: ALL RIGHT AND
WE’VE BEEN REMINDING EVERYONE
DON’T PANIC. THIS IS LIKE
SCHOOL FOR THE FIRST TIME FIRST
DAY OF SCHOOL ALL OVER AGAIN
AND THAT YOU’RE WORKING WITH
PARENTS AND SO EVERYBODY’S
GOING TO GET
THROUGH THIS. YES, NO YARI WE
