Count Month
Count month begins next week. Each Wednesday teachers will post a question on Google Classroom and students must respond with high quality answers by Friday. Count Month due dates are:
- February 14 question posted-February 16 student answer due
- February 21 question posted-February 23 student answer due
- February 28 question posted-March 1 student answer due
- March 6 question posted-March 8 student answer due
Mark you calendars and check that student answers are complete by each due date. Participating in Count Month is required to remain part of VLAC. Students who do not submit high quality responses by each due date will have their sending school district contacted on Monday to determine if your district will allow you to remain part of the program. VLAC has a responsibility to your sending school district to ensure you fill this requirement so that your district receives state funding for each student they enroll with VLAC.
