McClintock Miller discusses how students, teachers and families are now settling into their time apart, as educators plan how to learn, teach and connect with one another online. “One of the first things we thought about as a district was how to stay connected to our students, to let them know we miss and care about them, and as a way to share messages, stories, little project ideas, health tips, Spanish lessons, art challenges and other fun things during this time,” McClintock Miller says.
