ARE YOU TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO REMOTE LEARNING WITH YOUR KIDS?
DO YOU HOPE THEY WILL GET THROUGH IT ON THEIR OWN OR WILL YOU BE LEFT HAVING TO CHOOSE BETWEEN WORK OR YOUR CHILD?
HOW WILL THIS WORK?
WILL THEY NEED SUPREVISION?
WHAT ABOUT THESE CHALLENGES?
REMOTE-AT-HOME CHALLENGE #1
Balancing YOUR workload with your child's need for attention and help with their schoolwork.
REMOTE-AT-HOME CHALLENGE #2
Your child will have 4-6 hours of screen time, have to navigate virtual meeting room schedule and technology with unsupervised breaks, and you will be expected to "pitch in" throughout the day.
REMOTE-AT-HOME CHALLENGE #3
With remote learning your child will be lacking much needed socialization by being isolated at home. Interacting safely with other kids is imperative to their growth and development during this time of their life.

HOW CAN MURRAYHILL MARTIAL ARTS HELP...
AREN'T YOU A MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL?
Being a local community leader for kids’ martial arts programs is not our only strength! You may know us as a kids martial arts academy, BUT we are also well established in the community as a “child development center”!
We understand student learning needs and have been preparing for digital learning since the start of this unprecedented time. We provide an environment where physical, intellectual, emotional, and social development is the foundation leading your child’s success! Even if your child never steps foot in a physical classroom this year, our digital learning center has been transformed to provide your child the reality of going to school every day!
WHAT IS IT EXACTLY?
We are providing a socially-distanced, safe, dedicated, digital learning classroom. We will make sure your child attends their virtual classes, completes their school work, and has physical activity throughout their school day.
Here is an "example" of their day:
- Our doors open at 8:15 AM.
- By 8:30 AM, students are at their stations, logged on, and learning.
- At 11 AM, break for lunch and free time.
- At 12 noon, it's back to class.
- Pickup is at 2:30 PM.
There will also be time for breaks and physical activity throughout the day!
While we are not providing tutoring, each child will have access to guided learning assistance to help with technology and schoolwork.
A SAFE AND POSITIVE PLACE TO SPEND THE SCHOOL DAY!
Health and safety are among our core values and self-defense against COVID-19 is at the top of our list.
We have a spacious facility but to be in compliance, there are seats for ONLY 10 students at this time.
Safety starts with:
- Temperature checks on arrival
- Mandatory hand sanitation at the front door and between activities
- Mandatory masks
- No equipment or supply sharing
- Assigned chairs and workstations
- Hand sanitizer provided for each student at their workstation
- Dedicated matted area for P.E. classes
- Safe social-distancing the entire day
*Protocols subject to change upon updated OHA safety guidelines.
F.A.Q.
Do I need to be a Murrayhill Martial Arts Student?
No. Anyone is eligible for enrollment.
Who can enroll?
To provide the best learning experience and due to capacity limits
we are only enrolling kids between 1st grade and 5th grade.
How Many days can my child attend?
Current public health safety guidelines require us to maintain the same group of kids in a given week to limit exposure. So, this is a 4-day per week program matching local remote learning schedules (Mon, Tue, Thu, Fri).
What should my child bring?
Each child should bring their backpack, Chromebook, headset with mic, school materials and supplies, lunch and snacks for the day. We will provide individualized pencils, colored pencils, markers, crayons, pencil sharpener, and hand sanitizer. Their supplies will be kept in a personalized storage tote.
My kids absolutely love it here! The instructors are amazing, and they know how to combine fun with discipline in a way that kids respond.
Awesome instructors!

At this time, we are limiting our Digital Learning Center to 10 kids.
