“We have determined that one area in need of immediate attention is additional planning and preparation time for our classroom teachers,” a statement posted on the district’s website read. “CFISD teachers are committed to providing quality instruction for their students and are working harder than ever to teach students both in-person and remotely.”
Parents will continue to be able to opt for in-person learning or remote learning for their children at the end of each grading period, according to the district. The following days will be designated as remote learning days districtwide:
- Nov. 3
- Dec. 11
- Jan. 15
- Feb. 12
- March 12
- April 12
- May 17
Those already participating in the district’s remote learning program, CFISD Connect, will watch prerecorded lessons and complete assignments virtually. Attendance will be recorded based on their completion of assignments and/or their login to Schoology. There will be no live instruction on these days, and there will be no check-ins from teachers.
“We appreciate everyone’s patience as we continue to make changes that we believe will have a positive impact on both our students and staff,” officials said in the statement. “Please contact your campus directly if there is a need to request on-campus learning at school for a student in pre-K through 8th grade on these designated remote learning days from home.”
