DHHS Updates
Good afternoon Daniel Hand High School community:
February 15, 2022 - Asynchronous Learning Day (Reminder)
As a follow-up to Dr. Cooke's January 14, 2022 E-Notify, all DHHS students will participate in an asynchronous learning day on Tuesday, February 15, 2022. Students are expected to log-in to each of their courses via Google Classroom where an assignment or task will be posted. The assignment/task must be completed on February 15th in order for students to be considered in attendance for the day. Faculty members will not be available to engage in live instruction with students on this day. Instead, faculty will be working collaboratively to prepare for the upcoming NEASC visit. This work is essential and will ensure we are prepared for this important next step in the accreditation process.
