Hello Mustang Families. This is Marla Mondora with our weekly message.

We have completed our first week of Remote Learning with new content. Teachers were excited to see each student last week and look forward to seeing all of you this week.  I hope your students have been able to engage in the work in each of their classes. While online learning can be a challenge, the teachers are working hard to make learning accessible and meaningful.

I do recognize that one barrier to remote learning is having a device and connectivity. Martin is one of the WCPSS schools that is still waiting for devices and hotspots to be delivered to school. Once we have them on campus, we will notify families who reported the need to check out devices and hotspots for a pickup day and time.

Through a partnership with UNC-TV, students can access free, grade appropriate educational programming daily from 8am-1pm. For information on daily programming, please visit the WCPSS Conronavirus Updates page on the WCPSS website.

Students are also encouraged to spend a minimum of 30 minutes per day on DreamBox. Students can access DreamBox through their Wake ID Portal.
