Plans for three separate educational programs for the 2020-2021 school year were presented to our board for consideration. Although operating three different programs in the same year will be a stretch, we want all families, students, and staff to feel safe and supported.
At our next meeting on June 29, 2020, I will recommend approval of the following three educational programs for the 2020-2021 school year:
Traditional schedule:
Five days per week of in-class instruction with class sizes to be determined based on the number of students who elect the hybrid or online learning model from each school.
Hybrid Schedule:
- Two days per week of in-class instruction and three days per week of at-home independent learning, with a maximum of 17 students per day in a class
- Offered at Riego Creek Elementary, Stoneridge Elementary, and Cooley Middle School with limited availability
- Placement is dependent upon enrollment numbers
- Instruction provided by RCSD teachers
- Families will still receive communication from their school of residence
- Families to arrange/provide transportation and childcare
- Guaranteed placement at currently enrolled school for the 2021-2022 school year
Champions Academy:
- Full-time online learning program from home.
- Instruction provided by RCSD teachers
- Standards-based daily instruction
- Whole group and small group instruction
- Personalized instruction with teacher meeting time
- Includes asynchronous and synchronous personalized learning
- Families will still receive communication from their school of residence
- Guaranteed placement at currently enrolled school for the 2021-2022 school year
On July 1, 2020, parents will receive information about each Board-approved program, along with a link to make a selection.
