Russell Independent Schools values every minute of instructional time that we have available with our students. Several years ago we implemented the Non-Traditional Instructional Day along with the guidelines provided by the Kentucky Department of Education. Our school system has valued your feedback regarding the NTI days through Survey Monkey. With that in mind, we have made adjustments to the NTID Plans in order to better service our families and the educational experience of our students.
These plans may be put into place to recover lost instructional time if severe illness or inclement weather forces the closure of schools. School will be considered in session on these days even though the students are not physically present in the buildings. The non-traditional days will be determined by the Superintendent and will be based on the number of days that we miss during the current school year. Parents and students will be notified via Twitter, Facebook, Russell Independent Schools’ website and blog, Instagram, Remind 101, and OneCall.
The delivery of the assignments (digital or other) will be assigned by the teacher and will require completion to the specifications as outlined by the district and school plans. Please feel free to visit our district website for more information regarding the Non-Traditional Instructional Day (NTID).
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your child’s education and we hope Non-Traditional Instructional Days, if implemented this year, will be found to be beneficial to students.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your child’s principal.
Sincerely,
