Code Orange Instructions

Code Orange

PWCS has a designation, Code Orange, for days when weather conditions may be uncertain, or unsafe, for a limited period.  On a Code Orange day, students will log into Teams and attend virtual classes.  Code Red will still be used for severe weather days. 

Logging into Microsoft Teams 

Here are instructions on how to log into Teams, Innovation Elementary's virtual classes application. Innovation Elementary will not be using Zoom for virtual classes; classes will be held via Teams.

Logging into Clever 

Students can access Clever via the Clever app. Clever is used to access Lexia, IXL, Seesaw, Gizmos, and other programs.  Students may have an app verison of the program (e.g. Seesaw and Lexia) on their iPad that they can use instead of using the Clever app.
