COVID 19 Emergency Resolution
The Auburn Public Schools Spring 2020 COVID 19 Grading Policy addresses the impact of the coronavirus on learning and grading for the remainder of the 2019 - 2020 school year. It is responsive to the unique challenges of remote learning, equity, and academic integrity. The policy does not penalize students whose learning is impacted by school closure. The policy ensures that seniors who are on track to graduate will graduate at the end of the semester.
We strongly recommend that students complete the Educational Learning Plan assignments and activities to ensure continuity of learning through the end of the school year. Assignments and activities may be submitted to teachers for feedback.
