Digital Learning Days

For the 2025-2026 school year, there are four planned Digital Learning Days (DLDs) scheduled throughout the year for teacher planning/staff development.

• Friday, September 19th
• Tuesday, November 4th
• Friday, February 6th
• Friday, March 13th

On these days, all students will learn from home by completing assignments at their own pace. Teachers will have the day's assignments posted on their Google Classroom page by 9:00 am on the day of the scheduled Digital Learning Day.  Learning will be asynchronous, meaning students will not have live sessions. Students who are unable to complete assignments on these DLDs will be given the opportunity to complete assignments when they return to school.   To ensure all learning is captured, students will have a grace period of 5 school days following the Digital Learning Day to turn in any outstanding assignments. Assignments not submitted within this 5-day period will be recorded as an NTI/0 (Not Turned In/Zero).

The GCPS calendar 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.

• Bay Creek Middle School teachers will post assignments by 9:00 a.m on their eCLASS course or Google Classroom page.
• Students will log in to the student portal and click on the eClass C&I course pages or Google Workspace for Education.  
• Students will access assignments, resources, and materials on their teacher's eCLASS page or Google Classroom. Per the teacher's directions, student work is expected to be turned in either digitally or in person.
• The teacher will be available periodically throughout the day to answer students' questions.
• If a student cannot access a computer or device (tablet, smartphone, etc.), the student can get the assignment once school resumes.  The student will have two days per Digital Learning Day to complete the assignment and turn it into the teacher.

If you have further questions, don't hesitate to contact your child's teacher.
