FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS REGARDING BLIZZARD BAGS

What is a “blizzard bag?”

A blizzard bag is when assignments are posted online for students to complete at home during calamity days.  Students have up to two weeks to complete the assignment and turn it in for credit.  Students who do not have Internet access at home will receive the assignment when they return to classes.

When would we use this option?

Hilliard City Schools will only use this option should it become necessary to use more than the five allotted calamity days.  Ohio Revised Code only allows school districts to use up to three days of blizzard bag options for credit towards calamity days.  Any school closures beyond the five allotted calamity and three blizzard bag days will have to be made up at the end of the school year.

How are the lessons made available to students?

The district, school or teacher will make the lessons available online to all students by 11 a.m. on the calamity day.  This may include posting the lesson to the teacher’s website, eCampus, social media feed, email distribution list or other electronic communication option.  If a student does not have Internet access then it is their responsibility to ask for a paper copy of the lesson once they return to school.
