MIDLOTHIAN ISD 2/14 UPDATE: Remote/Virtual Learning Monday 2/15 & Tuesday 2/16
The predicted winter weather mix has come and created hazardous road conditions. All campuses will shift to remote learning on Monday, February 15, and Tuesday, February 16. This afternoon, principals will email parents regarding remote learning expectations and zoom opportunities for teacher assistance. Additionally, remote learning will be asynchronous allowing your student to do school work on his/her own time. We hope you find this helpful as you manage your work and home life. With concerns related to possible rolling blackouts or power outages due the increased demand to heat homes and offices, we will make adjustments as necessary. All campus events, programs and athletic activities are canceled tomorrow, February 15. Extracurricular activities scheduled for Tuesday, February 16 will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
