• Getting Started!

    Welcome new cyber families! 

     

    Here are a few general pieces of information to get you started! 

    Teachers

    Mrs. Crump- 6, 7, 8 Math- hmartin@eriesd.org

    Attendance 

    Cyber students must sign into K12 Stride each school day to be marked present for the day. If they do not login on a normal school day, they will be marked absent. If your child has an appointment or is sick, please email us any excuses or doctor's notes and I will forward them to our principal in charge of attendance. (You can also bring excuses into the school)  

     

    Classes 

    Each middle school cyber student is enrolled in four main courses: ELA, math, science, and history. Each day they are expected to complete one lesson in its entirety for each class.  This equals four total lessons. These lessons usually take students about an hour each. Keep in mind some students work faster or slower than others do. In addition, the length of the lessons does vary from day to day. On average, we estimate your child should be working anywhere from 4 to 6 hours each day.  

     

    Middle school students will also have the opportunity to attend related arts classes.  They will rotate on a three-week basis through Art, Music, and Gym.

    Extra Help & Supports Available  

    We offer many different supports and interventions to help your child succeed. If you have any questions about our extra help opportunities, please email us!  

     

    Cyber Labs

    We offer in-person cyber labs every school day from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Emerson-Gridley.   

     

    Retakes/Redos

    All middle school cyber students can retake any quizzes, tests, or assessments that they did not do well on originally. Same goes for essays or projects. If your child would like to retake an assessment and one is not available to them, simply have them email the teacher and ask for a retake. It is important that they include the subject and lesson number. For example, "Ms. Zimmer, could I have a retake on ELA quiz 1.02?" 

     

    Recorded Lessons 

    In ELA, math, science, and history, lessons are recorded and posted each day under class announcements.  Students can download the recorded videos to hear the content being read aloud, watch examples or demonstrations, and observe how to navigate the platform.  

     

    Daily Live Sessions 

    Have your student check their Stride schedule for opportunities to meet with their teachers LIVE!  In these live sessions, students can ask for help with the curriculum, assignments, or assessments.
