 "Schoology" Parent Access Update - October 6, 2020
Your student's school will be reaching out to you by the end of next week with an access code for "Schoology". If you do not receive an access code by October 9th, reach out to your child's homeroom teacher. At the secondary level, you only need 1 access code and all courses will be loaded.
This account will allow you to see the work your child has submitted, discussions they have participated in, school updates, and also provides the ability to message staff at the school. Multiple children can be added to one parent account.
The following are videos (Part 1 and Part 2) showing how to set up your account and take advantage of all the "Schoology" features available to you.

Dear Lynn Tech Families,
Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year!
Per our Jupiter message communication, you have been informed the Lynn Public Schools will begin the 20-21 school year remotely. Remote learning is students engaged in their classes and completing assignments from a remote location, not from inside school. Although we will be learning remotely, the attendance policy has not changed, it remains the same as in previous years.
This school year will look very different as we move into teaching and learning. We have adopted a learning management system for Lynn Public Schools called "Schoology". A learning management system is an online application that allows for the administration of educational courses allowing for learning anytime from anywhere. Your child will be taught using the learning management system, "Schoology", Monday-Friday, throughout the school day and beyond. "Schoology" can be accessed through a desktop, laptop, or through the web browser on an iPad or tablet.
Students will access "Schoology" by logging onto:
https://lynnschools.schoology.com
Username: student’s email address:
stu------@lynnschools.org (6 digit ID# follows stu)
The same username and password that they use to log into their computers.
Their courses will be loaded on this page and they will have access to school updates.
Students in grades 3-12 should have already received their district issued loaner laptops at this time. If you have not had this opportunity, please contact our main office at 781.477.4720 for information regarding dates, times, and locations for pickup (August 26th 8:30-2pm at LVTI Annex building, August 27th 8:30-2pm Marshall Middle School of Classical High School).
In order to prepare your child for remote learning, we have designated 4 days of online orientation with your child’s teacher as well as 1 day for material/supply pickup at the school.

Welcome Grade 8 Discovery Families!
We are learning that despite our many messages, some families are still experiencing roadblocks with accessing the information. We apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this has caused.
We have attached and uploaded all of our welcome back messaging on our website for you while we determine and resolve these communication roadblocks.
Also, please click on "Schoology" resources for the most update to date tutorials as you navigate our new student learning management system. Tomorrow, Sept 16th from 8 AM until 8;45 AM. We will be assisting those students in our main back lot with technology navigation issues.
Students must come with their school issued laptop fully charged and their log in information. Again this is only for students we are struggling with using technology as we prepare to open school this week.

Welcome to Lynn Vocational Technical Institute
Lynn Tech offers sixteen technical areas that all students explore during part of their freshmen year before choosing a career path of study for the next three years. We offer three licensed trades where students log hours toward licensure while learning in shop. Co-Operative education and internships are also available to juniors and seniors who meet eligibility requirements. These students have the opportunity to transition into the workplace, offering them advanced on-the-job training that often leads to full time employment upon graduation.
The faculty and support staff at Lynn Tech is committed to providing our students with the best academic, technical and personal experience possible. Please read our mission statement and feel free to contact us if you’d like more information on what Lynn Tech has to offer.

About School Councils
A school council is a representative, school building-based committee composed of the principal, parents, teachers, community members and, at the secondary level, students, required to be established by each school pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 71, Section 59C.
It is important to note the School Council plays an advisory role in assisting the building principal to organize and implement a School Improvement Plan which not only addresses the areas in which the school intends to comply with the requirements of the Educational Reform Act, but also how the school intends to meet those system-wide goals and policies adopted by the school committee. Membership will consist of the principal, teachers, parents, students and community members. |
