Moncure K-2 Welcome Back Video
The Chatham County School Board voted to begin in-person instruction for K-2 students. In-person instruction will begin on October 19. Moncure's K-2 students will come to school 2 days a week while also continuing to learn remotely 2 days a week. Students that were signed up for CCS Virtual Academy will remain in remote learning 4 days a week (all week).
K-2 Students are being grouped into 3 groups: A group, B group., and VA (Virtual Academy) group.
Students in the A group will come to school on Mondays and Tuesdays, and students in the B group will come to school on Thursday and Friday.
Students in A Group will learn remotely on Thursday and Friday, and students in the B group will learn remotely on Monday and Tuesday.
Students in the VA (Virtual Academy) Group will learn remotely on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Parents signed up for the VA Group at the beginning of the school year. Questions regarding VA are to be directed to Mitch Stensland: mstensland@chatham.k12.nc.us
Wednesdays are being used for teacher planning.
On Wednesday, K-2 teachers will communicate which students are in A group and B group. Specifics on Moncure's plan for Virtual Academy will also be shared. The following factors were considered when forming A group and B group.
Student and Staff Safety Most importantly, ensuring that the 6 foot social distancing protocol is followed and that there is enough staff to monitor the health-screening protocols and the 6 foot, mask-wearing and hand-washing protocols. Our school and bus disinfecting plans were also a large factor in our decision-making process.
Optimizing Use of Instructional Time It is Moncure School's goal to continue providing K-2 students as much "Live" teacher instruction as possible. It is our goal to ensure that students still have the opportunity to receive "Live" instruction from our teachers 4 days a week through a combination of in-school and remote instruction.
Consistency We will make every attempt to NOT change the teachers of our K-2 student population. We understand the importance of consistency in the lives of our students at this time. Every effort will be made to keep students assigned to their current teacher. Mr. Sudol will contact the parents of students that will have a different teacher when students return. It is also our goal to keep in-person and remote student schedules as closely aligned to our current practices as possible.
Siblings We understand that having siblings on the same A or B group schedules is a great need for families. Every effort will be made to make this happen. In some cases, changing a child's assigned teacher may be the only way to ensure this. Mr. Sudol will contact families and provide options when this is the case.
On Wednesday, Mr. Sudol will be sharing the safety protocols that Moncure School will take when students return. Please check this page on Wednesday evening for this information. Parents and students will be given the opportunity to ask questions on a Google Form after these protocols and information regarding the A, B, and VA groups are shared.. We are looking forward to seeing our K-2 here at school and teachers and staff are working extremely hard to make this a successful transition.
