Greenville Middle School’s Remote Learning Option
By remote teacher, Andrea Colley
Greenville Middle School’s remote learning option welcomed
approximately one hundred and fifty students back to school this year!
The online program provides learners with the opportunity to work
through all areas of the curriculum with certified Greenville teachers.
Access to assignments, resources, and instruction is provided through
Canvas, and students receive additional support and extended practice
through Microsoft Teams, Zoom, ConnectEd and a variety of other
technology applications.
The Covid-19 era has introduced a new set of educational challenges,
but the remote teachers at Greenville Middle School are proud of how
students have taken the initiative to meet those challenges head on.
Students are gaining confidence and competence in using 21st century
technology, and they are demonstrating an increased ability to problem
solve and think outside of the box when approaching learning tasks.
Participating in online platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams
allows students to improve their communication and presentation skills
as well.
Ms. Colley, Ms. Gann, Ms. Schaaf, and Mrs. Townsend, the remote
instructors, have enjoyed getting to know students in new and unique
ways. Bio poems, photo galleries, slide shows, and virtual meetings
have given insight into individuals’ interests, families, future plans,
and personalities! The G.M.S. remote learning community is diverse,
talented, and focused on academic success. Go Wave!
