Full Remote Academy Staffing ● Staffed in ratio to students registered for the Full Remote Academy. ○ If a school has 120 students register for the Remote Academy, roughly 6 teachers would be dedicated to the Full Remote Academy, depending on grades needed. (For K-3 planning, follow class size ratios pending approval of district waiver by the state.) ● Schools with small numbers of students registering will be assisted centrally with staffing and partnering with schools. ○ Example: if a school has 20 students register from across K-5 ● EC, ESL, & TD teams will continuously evaluate needs as enrollment rolls in to be able to staff appropriately.
How Do Families Register for the Academy? • Full Remote Academy registration can be done on the CMS Website beginning Friday, July 17 th . • Registration will be promoted on CMS social media, through local media outlets, and in tandem with community partners. • This option is available for families independent of which “Plan” the district opens with for the 2020-21 school year. • Students new to CMS must first enroll at their home school or magnet before completing a registration for the Full Remote Academy.
