How can I contact my child's teacher?
All teachers will have daily virtual office hours when they will be available. The office hours are posted at
the top of the Classwork section in Google Classroom. They are also posted on their classroom website.
How will students continue learning at home?
Students will be using Google Classroom to access assignments and activities provided by their
teachers. Teachers are attending classes this week to learn more about using Google Classroom and
the resources that are available to them for distance learning. They will be setting up their classrooms
and preparing on-line assignments. Many teachers have already posted some fun activities and
assignments for students to get acquainted with the platform. Officially, students will not begin online

assignments until Monday, April 6th. If your child's teacher has not posted assignments, they will be
posted by April 6th.
What if my child does not have a device to
access the online content?
Devices will be available for check-out on Monday, March 30 – Wednesday, April 1 from 10 AM – 1 PM.
Only one device will be distributed per family. If you need a device for your household, the survey below
must be completed.

How will my child be graded?
We are awaiting guidance from CPSB. Students need to take their Google Classroom assignments
seriously and complete their work. Communication with your child's teacher is key.
Will students have to make up the missed days?
The current guidance from the Louisiana Department of Education and BESE is that the
minutes-needed requirement has been waived.
Will students still take the LEAP 2025 Test?
As of this time, all state tests are scheduled as planned. A request for a waiver has been sent to the
USDOE from the LDOE. State testing is part of the ESSA plan and can not be waived by the states
without federal permission.
What if I need help with breakfast and lunch.
Information can be found in the link below. Blanchard Elementary is one place you can come to get
breakfast and lunch. However, you do not have to come to BES to get meals. You can pick them up
from the school on the list that is located closest to your home.
