Dear Parents and Guardians,

Tonight, the Governing Board approved the return to in-person, teacher-led classroom instruction beginning second quarter if the District can do so in a manner consistent with the Maricopa County Health Department/Arizona Department of Health Services public health benchmarks in effect at that time. The board will re-evaluate at its September 25 meeting if the criteria has not been previously met.

We look forward to safely welcoming students back to in-person instruction, and until then will be working hard to provide a quality learning experience for students in our online and virtual learning environments.

Digital Citizenship

We cannot expect students to make the transition to online without preparing them for the online world. Take some time to discuss digital citizenship with your child and your students. Teach them how to interact with others online. We recommend using lessons from Common Sense Media . You will find a lesson for each grade in the following areas:

Media Balance and Well Being
Privacy and Security
Digital Footprint and Identy
Relationships and Communication
Cyberbullying, Digital Drama and Hate Speech

Email: Use your Outlook email (cusd80.com) to communicate with students and parents, not your G Suite email (gse.cusd80.com)

Phone: Use your personal phone, or sign up for a "temporary" phone number using Google Voice (this must be done using a personal Google account, and cannot be done with your CUSD G Suite account).
