TOP QUESTIONS FROM PARENTS

• How will online learning work at FLHS? What resources are available to me and my student? How can my student access online classes? (schedules, Canvas, Teams)

• How will the Cambridge curriculum work with online learning? Will our students be at a disadvantage when taking AICE exams?

• What extracurricular opportunities may still be available virtually (clubs, sports, presentations, etc.)?

• Will tutoring be available? What should I do if my student needs academic help?

• When will on campus learning resume?
