CSBC Learning Methods for 2020-21

Please indicate which learning method you choose for each of your children attending the Catholic Schools of Broome County this fall. 

All responses must be submitted by Friday, August 21, 2020 at 4 pm.  

For families who select remote synchronous instruction, please note:

• For Grades 7-12 - this selection will stay in effect until at least Thanksgiving recess. 
• For Grades Pre-K - 6 - this selection may be revisited at the end of each month.

At any grade level, if you select face-to-face learning and would like to switch to remote learning you may do so at anytime. But when you do, your student will be a remote learner moving forward and cannot switch back to face-to-face learning until the dates listed above. Face-to-face options are available as spacing allows.

Face-to-Face Learning - The traditional model of instruction in which students are present in their classrooms with desks which are spaced at least 6 feet apart. At the same time within the classroom, faculty will teach the remote learners who are virtually attending. Both the face-to-face and remote schedules will be the same.

Remote Synchronous Instruction - Courses are delivered both in person and online at the same time by the same faculty member. Face-to-face classes are streamed live with remote students participating from home. Direct instruction will also be recorded for later playback. Teachers interact with both face-to-face and remote synchronous learners, through Google Classroom/Meets platform. Students who are working remotely will be able to participate
