Digital Learning Days
-
For the 2024-2025 school year, there are four planned Digital Learning Days (DLDs) scheduled throughout the year for teacher planning/staff development.
- Friday, September 20
- Friday, November 5
- Friday, February 7
- Friday, March 14
On these days, all students will learn from home by completing assignments at their own pace. Learning will be asynchronous, meaning students will not have live Zoom or Google Meet sessions. Students who are unable to complete assignments on these DLDs will be given the opportunity to complete assignments when they return to school.
Note: The GCPS calendar for 2024-2025 does not include designated inclement weather make-up days. GCPS will make up any inclement weather days by using Digital Learning Days (DLDs) and/or extending the school day or year. For more information regarding inclement weather procedures, please visit the GCPS website.

Additional Info
Students will use the My eCLASS Student Portal to log into their eCLASS pages where they will access assignments, resources, and other materials.
Students will access assignments through the teacher's Google Classroom and/or eCLASS page (depending on the grade level).
If the power is out during an inclement weather digital learning day, a student may access the teacher’s assignments when power returns. If a student does not have access to a computer or device (tablet, smartphone, etc.), the student can get the assignment once school resumes. Student work will be expected to be turned in to the teacher (either digitally or in-person).
