  • Be patient, understanding, courteous and respectful

    • Make sure to mute yourself when you are not speaking, use the chat to discuss class-related topics during instruction, be patient and understanding with your teacher and other students (as we all learn to navigate new technologies), and use school-appropriate language/actions
