APPENDIX B – <strong>CPS</strong> LEARNING MODELS DECISION TREE 24
APPENDIX C - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What should I do if I do not feel comfortable letting my child return <strong>to</strong> campus? If, for any reason, you are not ready <strong>to</strong> let your child attend class on campus, please contact the Academic Direc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> discuss Model 3 Connected Comets. This option allows any family <strong>to</strong> transition <strong>to</strong> distance learning at any time. How will grades be managed in each of the scenarios? Students will be assessed using a variety of methods, whether they are learning on campus or from home. For students learning completely at home, the nature of the graded assignments may be different, depending on the grade level, subject area, and learning targets. What should I do if my child is not being challenged during distance learning? Parents are encouraged <strong>to</strong> first contact their homeroom teacher if they do not feel their child is adequately challenged during distance learning. If additional assistance is needed, parents and/or teachers should then contact the Academic Direc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> discuss tailored solutions for your child. What happens if my child-or anyone in my family-arrives on campus without a mask? All individuals on our campus are required <strong>to</strong> wear a mask 2020-21 academic year until notified otherwise. <strong>CPS</strong> will provide one fabric masks for each employee and all students. <strong>CPS</strong> will also have disposable masks available. Will students participate in field trips, assemblies, annual traditions and sports? Field trips and annual traditions and all activities outside of school are temporarily suspended. In the future these will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis <strong>to</strong> determine which activities are safe and appropriate based on the current government regulations. For athletic events and sports, we will follow the guidance set by the PRHSAA and LAMEPI. What will happen if a student or teacher tests positive for COVID-19? If a student or any member of the staff tests positive for COVID-19 during the school year, the school will implement the CDC guidelines. (See pro<strong>to</strong>cols for Illness on Campus – page 18). What will happen if my student(s) needs <strong>to</strong> quarantine during the school year? The synchronous distance learning will be made available <strong>to</strong> students who are required <strong>to</strong> stay home due <strong>to</strong> a positive test result for COVID-19 or the 14-day quarantine pro<strong>to</strong>col for exposure. What will happen if a teacher needs <strong>to</strong> quarantine during the school year? Teachers, if asymp<strong>to</strong>matic or quarantined due <strong>to</strong> exposure, will support their classrooms via synchronous virtual instruction with assistance, if needed. If the teacher is ill, a substitute teacher will be assigned. In case the school is closed, what will happen with any fees (lunch, bus, athletics, activities and tuition fees) that have been paid in advance? <strong>CPS</strong> will continue <strong>to</strong> provide a <strong>to</strong>p-class learning experience for all of its students, regardless of the model used (face-<strong>to</strong>-face, hybrid or distant) and our teachers and staff will continue <strong>to</strong> work around the clock so that our student’s learning will not be adversely impacted. Therefore, we are not planning <strong>to</strong> change our current tuition fees. However, changes in the levels of usage for bus, lunch, and activities fees will be adjusted accordingly. 25
