LEDYARD CHARTER SCHOOL
BLIZZARD BAG GUIDELINES
BLIZZARD BAG ASSIGNMENTS
Blizzard Bag days will be announced when the weather forecast predicts a major storm. High school Blizzard Bag assignments are directly linked to the current classroom curriculum. This means assignments will only be posted online the day prior to an anticipated absence. Blizzard Bag assignments will be linked to course competencies.
All Blizzard Bag assignments are due within two school days of the day of the absence.
Late assignments will not be accepted after two school days. Students will receive a zero for assignments not submitted within two days of Blizzard Bag day. Please contact the Executive Director to appeal extenuating circumstances.
GRADE VALUE
Blizzard Bag assignments will count as a formative assignment. Blizzard Bag day assignments will not be recorded as a test or a quiz.
ACCESS TO INTERNET
Students who do not have access to the Internet must request hard copies of the Blizzard Bag assignments from their teachers.

Play a game with or against someone. Take notes about how you communicated with the others players. How did the conversations sound? What did everyone say? What was the tone? Be prepared to share your experiences in the following class. |
The LCSS-01 virus has mutated into an apocalyptic zombie plague. Create a 10-step plan acting as your branch of government and level for how you're going to deal with it. (Now you can be ridiculous with mega-domes and walls and euthanasia.)
