First Day of Remote Learning: Tomorrow!

Hello Parents and Guardians!


As we embark on this online learning journey together we wanted to take a few moments to share some of the Tarver 3rd Grade specifics before we begin. We know this document has a lot of information in it, but please read it carefully as it will answer many of your questions. It will be a great resource as we move forward as well.

Work Expectations:

Adams 12 has sent out work expectations in previous emails. We wanted to take a moment to touch on what we believe are the most important points:

  • Students will be expected to do between 60 and 90 minutes of work each day. 
  • A week's worth of work will be posted to your child's Google Classroom account each Monday (specific directions for this down below). 
  • It is up to you and your child how and when it is completed each week. 
  • Attendance will be based on the completion of work. Attendance will be taken on Fridays. 
  • Work is not optional, and should be completed each week.


Office Hours:

During this time, teachers will be actively checking email and will respond to you as quickly as possible. This is going to be the best time to ask all questions regarding content. If you email during non-office hours, teachers will get back to you within 24 hours.

  • Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 9:00-11:00
  • Tuesday, Thursday: 2:00-4:00


Google Classroom:

This will be the main platform from which students will be able to access their work. Your child has logged into Google Classroom many times this year and should be able to do so from home with little difficulty. All students who attended school on Friday, March 13th came home with their log-in information. If your child did not attend school this day, please contact your child's teacher for login information.

  • Steps to log in:

Tarver Website and Other Resources:

Teachers ill be updating their page on the Tarver Website frequently. This is going to be the best place to get updates. Students can continue to work on websites like Freckle and Epic to their benefit, however this work will not count towards their attendance or grades. Only work completed in Google Classroom will be counted and graded.

A Few Disclaimers:

  • We are all new to this, please have grace and patience through this process as we all learn together. 
  • Teachers are not trained in technology. If you are having trouble logging in to any of the platforms, please contact the district's IT department directly at: 720-972-4120, or email to FamilyTechSupport@adams12.org
  • You know your child best! Teachers will do their best to meet the needs of all students, however your child will need your support too. Please feel free to assist your child as you see fit. 
  • Please, please, please do not let at hone school work damage a child/parent relationship! Please notify your child's teacher if struggles occur. We want to help!
  • Communication is key! Please keep us in the loop and ask us questions during office hours.
Thank you and please contact us with any questions!
