Superintendent Update - Over the past several days, information has been shared regarding the extended school closure through at least April 16th, 2020. Even prior to announcing this extended closure, staff began to prepare for this likelihood to ensure students are supported. Outside of our regularly scheduled Spring Break (Monday March 30 - Friday April 3) our program of "Distance Learning" will be in place and will count as days of instruction. As such, and in order to avoid an extended school calendar, schools sites and teachers will be reaching out to you and your child(ren) to provide access to curricular materials and to provide academic supports to you. This communication is essential, and we ask that you and your children respond to staff regularly as we support continued academic growth. This communication, under Distance Learning, will allow students to be counted for attendance purposes and to meet the school year requirements (180 day calendar requirement). Instruction will be available through Distance Education (on-line), Blended Learning (on-line and hard copy), or Hard Copy materials for those without internet capabilities. As noted earlier, your individual school sites will be in contact to ensure that you and your child(ren) are provided with access to various academic materials and are available to support you during this difficult time. We would encourage parents to maintain a routine with your children, and encourage and support their academic endeavors. Our staff will continue to work during this time and are available to provide you with any supports you need. For the parents of Seniors, please know that we are very attuned to the concern that you and your children must be feeling about graduation. I have engaged with the State Department, and our high school principals are assessing the needs of each student. For those that are on track (credits and grades) we will ensure there are no barriers. For students that are credit deficient or need to make up courses, please work with your schools who will do all they can to support you. For as long as we remain in school closure, we will continue to provide meal service as was implemented this past week. We will also continue this service over spring break to support our students, families and community. We are so fortunate to have the outstanding staff we have in Humboldt County School District. Each staff member cares about your children, and are prepared to provide all the supports possible. As you engage with various staff members, please thank them for their service! Your kind support means a great deal to our staff. These are certainly difficult times, however, I am confident that we will come out of this challenge better as a result. I want to thank each of you for your kindness and support. The number of community members asking for ways to volunteer, provide materials, support staff and students, provides a clear reminder of how lucky we are to be in Humboldt County. My best wishes to each of you during this trying time. Dr. David Jensen Superintendent

Dear Parents and Students of Lowry High School: Beginning Monday March 23, 2020 in compliance with the Governor’s requirement to provide educational opportunities and two-way communication between the school and every student, Lowry High School will implement distance learning. Instruction will consist of on-line learning and/or independent learning packets that can be picked up from main office Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM-2:00 PM. Every Student is required to remain in contact with their assigned teachers on a weekly basis in order to be considered present for the purposes of attendance. All assignments must be turned in by the designated due dates. In order to earn credit for each course, students must complete their assignments and remain in contact with their teachers on a minimum of a weekly basis. All assignments, quizzes, and tests will be graded in order to determine grades for the 4th quarter and in turn to issue credit for each course. Those students enrolled within an A+ course (on-line course) can continue to complete assignments and complete tests at home via the computerized learning system currently in place. It is essential for students and parents work together with their teachers and school to ensure credits are earned, and their educational progress continues. Please do not hesitate to contact Lowry High School with any questions as we work together to provide each student with the best educational opportunities possible given the current conditions.
