Starting Monday, October 19th (the beginning of Quarter 2), CBA students will take classes from Monday-Thursday at home.
When LAEC initially decided to have CBA classes two days per week over Zoom, it was with the intention of transitioning to a hybrid model with students in the classroom two other days out of the week. But LA County continues to see high COVID case numbers, and we deemed it unsafe for students and teachers to return to campus this quarter. We will likely continue distance learning at least until January, if not beyond.
If you are a student or parent with questions, please reach out to the principal at your school. Thank you for your adaptability as we navigate this pandemic together.
We Welcome Your Input on LAEC's
Learning Continuity and Attendance Plans.
As part of LAEC's commitment to our students during the Coronavirus pandemic, and as required by the California Department of Education, we have developed Learning Continuity and Attendance Plans for TEC and CBA.
The Draft Learning Continuity and Attendance Plans, to be presented at a September 11, 2020 Public Hearing, are available for review and download here: CBA / TEC. Information about how to attend a virtual public hearing on the plans and opportunity to comment can be found posted at our TEC Long Beach campus or by calling (213) 321-2770.
Background
Senate Bill 98, approved by Governor Newsom on June 29, 2020, made several key changes to accountability requirements for 2020-21. These include the establishment of a new requirement – The Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan – that must be adopted by September 30, 2020.
The contents of LAEC's Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan are aligned to the information in the charter school's Safety Plan for Reopening Schools.
The Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan memorializes the ongoing planning process for the 2020-21 school year. It includes some items that are pending, still in development, and/or being discussed in The plan includes descriptions of how the district is doing the following:
- Addressing gaps in learning
- Conducting meaningful stakeholder engagement
- Maintaining transparency;
- Addressing the needs of unduplicated pupils, students with unique needs, and students experiencing homelessness
- Providing access to necessary devices and connectivity for distance learning
- Providing resources and supports to address student and staff mental health and social emotional well-being
- Continuing to provide school meals for students
