As CCSD continues to navigate unchartered waters utilizing a Digital Learning platform for middle school instruction, we are creating additional supports for our student’s success. Within this new support, students enrolled in Middle School APEX courses will now be able to receive direct instruction and support from CCSD teachers twice a week for ELA, Math, Science and Social Studies starting on Thursday, August 27, 2020. Students will have the opportunity to listen to live instruction and ask questions during the allotted time frame. Participation in the live instruction is voluntary and does not impact a student’s school attendance record in any way. Additionally, these direct instruction lessons will be recorded and archived for students to have access to following the two-day rotation for delivery. Please note that the school-based content area teacher will continue to provide support when needed.
The schedule for direct instruction for students in grades 6-8 for August 27- September 8, which will be accomplished by four content-specific teachers, is as follows:
