Ripley Primary School

For those who have working internet: The Targeted Learning Series will have live instruction in math and reading along with homework help this week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday fro 5:30-7:00. Check out this week’s topics below:

As a result of the winter storm, schools will be closed on February 16 & 17, 2021. Another announcement will be made Wednesday regarding additional closures for the remainder of the week. While we are not in session, schools will post online review and practice assignments for students. Teachers will also check their Google classroom messages, in the event students have questions or need help. Online work will not be new learning but will be focused on practice of skills previously learned. High schools will offer an ACT boot camp for students who are interested this week. Schools will also move forward with the online, evening lessons (targeted learning series), which started in February. Schools will post additional details on their website, mobile app, Google classrooms, social media, and/or by phone. Stay warm and be safe!
