Thank you for your participation!

Teachers will take attendance during the first 5 minutes of class for high school and 10 minutes for elementary and will note the time the student arrives in Infinite campus.

Tardies - Students will be marked tardy if they arrive after the first 5 minutes of class for high school and 10 minutes for elementary.

High Dosage Tutoring (HDT) Math class meets on Lynx Wednesdays (Lynx Session A - with your Advisement class / teachers / meet link). You do receive a grade and credit for this class! HDT Math is a Pass/Fail class where 70% or higher is passing. To pass, it is expected that students complete at least 30 minutes of MAP Accelerator each week.

MAP Accelerator is a personalized learning tool that ties scores from a student’s MAP Growth scores to learning pathways in Khan Academy—complete with lessons, instructional videos, and practice problems. It’s like having your own personal tutor in math!

In a typical 5-day week, students have the opportunity to work on MAP Accelerator for an hour each week. This includes 15 minutes in each Study Hall and 30 minutes in Lynx Session A. Students are still expected to complete 30 minutes of MAP Accelerator if there is a 4-day week, and those minutes are built into Study Hall.

Although your minutes spent on this program are important, so are your skills and levels. Try to work on leveling up and mastering new skills during each session! If you complete the required minutes but have not made progress in any skills or levels, you will not pass HDT Math

HDT Math is a separate class and a separate grade from your regular math class with your math teacher. However, your math teacher can certainly help you with MAP Accelerator. For example, if your personal MAP Accelerator level seems too easy or too difficult, your math teacher can adjust that for you.

Please let your HDT Math (Advisement) teachers and Math teacher know if you have any questions!

Hot on the tails of our incredibly exciting Museum field trip, we are announcing our final K-5 field trip for the year. We are going to the zoo!

Please save the date and make every opportunity to join us on Monday, April 29th at 11:00 at the Denver Zoo.

Great news! all JRLP K-5 students and their parents have free admission! If additional guests will be attending (younger/older students, or students that don't attend JRLP, as well as additional adults) they will need to pay full price either online or on site.

We can't wait to see you at the zoo!
