Distance Learning Plan
The goal of ACS distance learning is to ensure learning continues in the event of school disruption and/or closure. A virtual learning environment does not necessarily replicate a traditional school day as per the timetable or student experience. In some cases reliance on distance resources may enhance the learning experience for some learners. Nonetheless, students should be able to independently extend their learning with the direction of the teacher and support of their parents. The Academic Measures (A, B, or C) that ACS will implement are linked to the level of risk the community is facing as described in this rubric.
Reopening Planning for ACS in August for the 2020-2021 school year. This link includes information about our thinking and planning for the 2020-2021 school year.
