Virtual Instruction Days
Virtual Instruction Days
A Virtual Instructional Day is a day when school districts (and school entities) can use an alternative approach to deliver instruction if a circumstance arises that prevents instruction in the customary manner. School districts must apply to PDE and, upon approval, are awarded five (5) Flexible Instructional Days for a three-year period (5 days each school year for three years). Here are the procedures California Area School District will follow:
A one-call will be sent to all staff, students and parents/guardians indicating that a flexible instructional day will be used. When a Flexible Instructional Day is implemented, staff will complete an online Google Form by 9:00 a.m. to record their attendance. If the staff member needs to call off, they will use the same system established by the District. Teachers will have from 8:00 - 10:00 a.m. for the preparatory time. From 10:00 a.m. - 11:45 a.m., teachers will be available for synchronous and asynchronous instruction. A universal lunch time will be from 11:45 - 12:15 for teachers. From 12:15 p.m. - 3:00 p.m., teachers will be available for synchronous and asynchronous instruction. The school day will be implemented like a typical two-hour delay on an adjusted Virtual Instructional Day schedule. Student attendance will be recorded through an online Google Form or by calling an automated system for recording attendance. Student attendance will be electronically disseminated to the teachers through the student information system.
