Face-to-Face

Face-to-Face Learning

  • Instruction that requires students to be in attendance every day.

  • Students will be screened during arrival times and maintain social distancing practices.

  • Students will be in a classroom in which we will strive to keep them separated within the CDC and TEA guidelines.

  • Students will learn new curriculum and plan for more frequent hand washing and/or hand sanitizing, and will consider whether increased airflow from the outdoors is possible.

  • Face-to face instruction will follow TEA’s guidance of the four sets of practices that minimize the likelihood of viral spread, including some that are requirements for all schools and others that are recommendations:

  • PROVIDE NOTICE: Requirements for parental and public notices

  • PREVENT: Recommended practices to prevent the virus from entering the school

  • RESPOND: Required practices to respond to a lab-confirmed case in the school

  • MITIGATE: Recommended practices to mitigate likelihood of spread inside the school

  • Students will attend school on a regular instructional schedule and will engage in face-to face learning on campus all day, every day.

  • Elementary students will be assigned to grade level classes that will be taught by teachers at their home campus.

  • Secondary students in grades 9-12 will follow their class schedules by transitioning to different classrooms for course instruction.

  • Classroom instruction will be designed for mastery of student learning outcomes based on the academic standards called the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for each content area.
