Each elementary school student must have an at-home Learning Coach. The Learning Coach must be an adult, usually the parent or guardian, who is responsible for assisting the student in maintaining progress in the online learning environment. Active involvement of a learning coach is a requirement for the program.
A learning coach, parent/guardian at the student's side, is required to work with their K-2nd grade student for approximately five hours throughout the day, and with their 3rd-5th grade student for approximately 3 hours throughout the day.
Learning coaches are required to be by their student's side at all times, 8:00 am - 2:11 pm, during whole group learning.
