Fall Parent/Teacher Conferences Information

9/30/2020

 
Olathe families,
We are looking forward to the upcoming fall conferences, held October 12-15. As we will not be hosting conferences in the traditional format, we wanted you to be aware of some of the changes.
Regardless whether students are enrolled in remote or in-person learning, conferences will be held the same way for all students; scheduled via Zoom or phone call. Email conferences are also possible. To help provide information clearly, additional information can be found below by grade level.
Elementary
All elementary families will be contacted by classroom teachers to schedule a conference. Additionally, families might be contacted by specialists and/or teams to schedule a conference. If you are not contacted by a specialist and/or teams but have a concern or wish for an update on your child’s progress, please email the teacher directly.
If you have a student that receives special education services, please reach out to your special services provider directly.
Zoom conference appointments may need to be prioritized for students with academic or emotional needs.
You will notice that effort grades for art, general music and PE are blank and the skills checklist boxes for each of the subjects are marked “N/A.” Due to the late start and hybrid schedule, students have had limited contacts with these teachers and has not allowed adequate time for teachers to gather data to assign grades. We anticipate that typical grading will be back in place for the second quarter and throughout the rest of the year for students learning in-person.
Secondary (middle and high school)
Middle and high school families may be contacted by the academic team or by individual teachers to schedule a conference. If you have a concern or wish for an update on your child’s progress, please do not wait for an email and contact the teacher directly.
Zoom conference appointments may need to be prioritized for students with academic or emotional needs.
Please continue to monitor ParentVUE for your student’s academic progress. As always, any time that you have questions about how your student is doing in class, contact the teacher.

ACT Prep Opportunity

9/30/2020

 
Olathe North students that are wanting to take advantage of ACT prep prior to the October or December test this fall should consider taking a class through PowerPrep Inc. We have had students take this class in the past and found it to be helpful in raising their scores. We worked with the company to try and offer a prep opportunity at a discounted price for Olathe North students. The discount code for Olathe North students is OLATHENORTH. That discount code will give students a $20 discount off these online October ACT classes if they register by Oct 1st. Check out this opportunity at their website, http://actprep.info/online. Remember good scores open doors to college admissions and scholarship opportunities!!

September 25th Remote Learning Day

9/21/2020

 
​Olathe North Community,
On the district calendar, September 25, 2020 is denoted as a remote learning day. This means that all students will be home, logging into StudentVUE to complete work. Students will have contact with their Advisor/Seminar teacher between 7:45 and 8:30 to take attendance and check in.  Staff members will have open zoom links to support any student needs until 8:30am.  On this day students will be provided with activities to complete independently. This does not necessarily mean a new assignment.  Teachers have informed them what is expected throughout the day during class on Wednesday and Thursday.  This day will be similar to how inclement weather days will be handled during the 2020-21 school year.  Have a great Weekend. 

Jason Herman 
Principal 
​Olathe North High School

​Información para padres relacionada con la encuensta SEL “Panorama de aprendizaje socioemocional de los estudiantes”.
Le agradecemos a usted y a su familia por ser parte de esta valiosa asociación mientras trabajamos juntos para educar a sus niños en nuestro distrito. Para aprender más acerca de las experiencias y las necesidades de los estudiantes, les estamos pidiendo a los niños que nos den sus opiniones a través de una encuesta en línea que completarán en la escuela. Más de 1.000 escuelas y distritos usan “Panorama de aprendizaje socioemocional de los estudiantes” (SEL por sus siglas en inglés) para medir y aumentar las destrezas y el apoyo socioemocional de los mismos.
 El aprendizaje socioemocional captura los estados mentales, las habilidades, la actitud y los sentimientos que ayudan al éxito de los estudiantes en la escuela, en su carrera profesional y, en la vida. En las Escuelas Públicas de Olathe, “Panorama de aprendizaje socioemocional” mide cómo se sienten los estudiantes y los maestros en temas relacionados con SEL y les brinda a los educadores los recursos para infundir cada parte del día con dichos temas en sus instrucciones.  
Su consentimiento durante la inscripción de los estudiantes permite a que estos completen la encuesta SEL en el distrito de solo 30 minutos, la cual se dará tres veces al año para medir la percepción de los estudiantes en las habilidades de las áreas relacionadas con la determinación, la regulación emocional, el autocontrol, la concientización social, la autoeficacia, la relación entre maestros y estudiantes, la ansiedad, el sentido de pertenencia y, la seguridad escolar. Dicha información será revisada tanto a nivel distrito como salón de clase para determinar las áreas en las cuales los estudiantes se encuentran fortalecidos y las áreas donde se necesita más instrucción y práctica de dichas destrezas. La información individual de los estudiantes estará disponible tanto para los padres como para los estudiantes. 
Por favor contacte al director de la escuela de su estudiante con preguntas adicionales o, para obtener una copia de las preguntas que se les hace a los estudiantes.
