AUSD Distance Learning Support for Parents/Guardians

From the Classroom to the "Home" Room

We know that supporting your children in an online learning environment may be daunting. Most of our parents/guardians have not been trained as teachers; many may not be comfortable using online tools. And many others may be trying to figure out how to also fulfill their own professional responsibilities at a time when most workers are being asked to telecommute.

We have created this page in order to provide you with information about online learning, supporting children who are studying at home, finding affordable internet access, and managing the social and emotional challenges that may come up during this time. We are translating these materials as quickly as we can.

Please also see our Coronavirus Hub page for trustworthy information about the disease and communications that AUSD is sending to families.
