[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Proposal for elementary school:  Eliminate PreK3 and PreK4 until Jan except for children who qualify for FARM or an IEP/504.   Use the opened up classroom space, classrooms and teachers to reduce K class size.  Give all K students the option of "redshirting".  If a parent selects this option, the student will be eligible to start in the PreK4 class in January.

Grades 1 - 5.   All students have the option of 100% distance learning for Aug - Dec (and possibly for the entire school year depending on how things unfold).   For families that select this option, there will be a dedicated cohort of teachers who will focus on being experts on delivering distance learning to this targeted age group.    There will be a "parent / school" commitment to learning which outlines expectations for online learning engagement.
[Level of home learning technology available, home learning environment and learning support]

For the remaining 1-5 students, create a programing alternating weeks of instruction.    Week 1 - in school instruction.   Week 2 - distance specials + using learning technology apps to reinforce learning.   This is a short term design and not intended to be a "redesigned learning".   It is purely a proposal to situation  we are all currently facing.

This actually sounds like a plan. Nothing leaking out of this administration comes close. It really seems like they're just trying to phone it in between the committee members and hand-waving ideas that obviously won't work.[/quote]

Evidence of Ward 3 bubble again. The vast majority of PK kids are FARMS. How do you suggest spacing those schools out?[/quote]
