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

• f 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 17th.

• 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.
