Did you know you can send a text message to an email address? And, the recipient's response will come back to the text message. I thought this might be helpful for folks who don't use email but need to reach out to email people. -Robert Williams -Director of Technology

Hey, we've been trying to collect many of the hundreds of online instruction at a distance resources here: https://wke.lt/w/s/tEE0Iu I hope this is helpful. I'm sorry that we haven't had time to organize it. There is a link on the NCSD COVID-19 Response page as well.

Duckwater is one of our ultra-small schools in a remote-rural area. With school closed, learning is still happening in home with support from the instructional team. Thank you, Mrs. Thompson.

Make reading a social activity Students who often read for pleasure have large vocabularies and strong thinking skills. To encourage reading for the fun of it, throw a family reading party. Make some snacks and gather together to read for 30 minutes. Everyone can read what they like. Or watch a movie based on a book, then have everyone read the book and gather again to talk about the differences between them. http://niswc.com/36cNC276091 ______________________________________ Convierta la lectura en una actividad social Los estudiantes que leen por placer con frecuencia suelen tener un vocabulario amplio y habilidades de razonamiento sólidas. Para animar a su joven a leer por placer, organice una fiesta de lectura familiar. Prepare algunos bocadillos y reúna a la familia para leer durante 30 minutos. Cada uno puede leer lo que quiera. O podrían ver juntos una película basada en un libro. Luego, lean el libro y vuelvan a reunirse para hablar de las diferencias entre las dos versiones. http://niswc.com/46cNC276091

PVHS received a SafeVoice tip today concerning a student with a knife on campus. The administration acted immediately to address the concern and a student was taken into custody by the NCSO. No student was harmed during this incident. The safety and security of all students and staff is a top priority. School administrators will continue to respond expeditiously to any and all safety concerns.

Mr. Norton prepares to engage prospect teachers at a recruiting fair for education graduates at the University of Illinois.

Help your teen recover from a poor choice All teens make poor choices sometimes. When your teen makes one, help her run through four R's experts say are key to recovery: 1. Recognition. Your teen should identify what she did that caused the problem. 2. Responsibility. She must accept that she was in error. 3. Reconciliation. She should apologize to anyone she's hurt. 4. Resolution. She should come up with a fix that is satisfactory to all involved. http://niswc.com/36cFC276091 ______________________________ Ayude a su joven a recuperarse de una mala decisión Todos los jóvenes toman malas decisiones de vez en cuando. Cuando su joven lo haga, ayúdelo a seguir las cuatro R que los expertos recomiendan para recuperarse: 1. Reconocimiento. Su joven debería identificar qué es lo que hizo que causó el problema. 2. Responsabilidad. Debería aceptar que cometió un error. 3. Reconciliación. Debería pedir disculpas a las personas que afectó. 4. Resolución. Debería pensar una manera de remediar el problema que sea satisfactoria para todos los involucrados. http://niswc.com/46cFC276091
