Brownell Talbot has defined four guiding principles that help to inform our decisions as we return to campus after campus closure due to COVID These principles speak to our mission and vision.
They are also aligned with what we have learned from our experience with distance learning during spring and the feedback from parent surveys. We believe that a healthy environment is ultimately a secure environment, one in which students, faculty, and staff are able to thrive.
We also believe that we have an obligation to support the health of the broader community — from our own Brownell Talbot families to those around our state. On-Campus Instruction Brownell Talbot recognizes that the optimal learning environment for children is one in which they are learning from their teachers and fellow students in person.
To the best of our ability, and in accordance with official health guidelines, we will seek to provide as much on-campus instruction as possible for all students every day. Academic Coherence and Excellence Brownell Talbot believes in the pursuit of academic excellence in any context and that a continuous educational experience is vitally important to achieve this end.
Flexibility and Adaptability Brownell Talbot recognizes that any plan that we design to respond to external health conditions must be flexible and able to adapt to circumstances beyond our control. Our overarching goal is to create a continuous learning structure that is durable enough to adapt to possible future coronavirus infections while still allowing us to maintain as much on-campus instruction as possible.
Brownell Talbot Distance Learning During the academic year, some students may participate in distance learning. The attendance policy transfers to distance learning, meaning daily attendance and participation are expected. Students are also expected to abide by all school policies during distance learning including, but not limited to policies related to attendance, discipline, bullying, assessment, homework, and uniform.
During distance learning, students should attend class in uniform. Students are required to be sitting at a table or desk and be in a location appropriate for others to see. Proper online etiquette should be used at all times and all technology and online tools should be used appropriately.
History Brownell Talbot was founded in September by the Rt.
