As we get guidance and updates regarding the remote learning plan, they will be posted here.

If you or a student have a technical issue (not related to instruction) you can call x20611 or 760 503 9800 to reach IT.

If you have a question about remote learning that hasn't been answered in the trainings, you can email it to edtech@avusd.org and we will add it to the list of questions we will be posting answers to.
