...for weather-related cancellations? Just curious about how other schools do things.

This is our first year & it definitely needs some tweaking. Currently, our high school is the only one who does their lessons the day of the event because they all have laptops that they bring home daily. K-8 has a window, sometimes the week of or sometimes the week after, from Thursday to the following Monday to get lessons done. We staff hours after school for kiddos who may not have internet access at home.

Funny you posted this. My school where I work does not, but my home district where my two kids go is piloting this program this year. The way it will work in DD's class (5th grade) is that on the day school is closed, they have a packet of worksheets to read and complete on line. The teachers must be available from 9-10:30 and again from 12:30-2 for any questions the students might have. They had to also have every parent sign something saying they had reliable internet access.
