HEALTH AND SAFETY The safety and health of our faculty, staff, students, and families is always our top priority at Carrollwood Day School (CDS). We understand that we are in an unprecedented time with the potential spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and to that end, CDS has reviewed our health-related plans and procedures and adapted them to ensure the health and safety of everyone. This applies to all school programs, including Before/After School. For more detailed procedures, please go to www.WeAreCDS.org/about/covid.
LEARNING PLANS The leadership team at Carrollwood Day School, together with the school nurse, is closely following the most current recommendations from local, state, and federal agencies to refine our learning plans for the opening of school in August 2020. These are robust tiered plans that will provide on campus classes for students in all grades paired with an Adaptable Learning Plan to accommodate students in PreK 4 through upper school who may need to attend remotely due to a COVID-related situation or family preference.

Adaptable vs Distance Learning Adaptable Learning = Distance Learning Adaptable Learning is designed to provide support for students and families who must be out temporarily or for an extended period of time during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It will align as much as possible with on-campus teaching and learning. Adaptable Learning is designed to help maintain connection and community between classmates on campus and those at home. When Adaptable Learning is an option, teachers are offering two separate modes of education simultaneously - one in-person, the other online.
Distance Learning will be implemented only if mandated by local, state, or federal authorities. This plan is designed to provide an educational alternative to in-person instruction when it is not safe to open all or part of the CDS campus. When Distance Learning is deployed an entire class, division, or the school as a whole is involved. During a mandated Distance Learning period, teachers are devoted to providing instruction virtually. In the event school must transition to full Distance Learning, we will prioritize continuing to offer on-campus instruction for our PreK 4 and younger students, if possible.

CDS Adaptable Learning Plan Selecting a Learning Plan If a family intends to begin the 2020-2021 school year remotely via the Adaptable Learning option, they are advised to alert their respective School Head(s) in writing by July 23. Carrollwood Day School is proud to be able to fulfill our mission and continue to provide our high-quality education to students even during these exceptional circumstances. Adaptable Learning designates the experience students will have when school remains in session but individual students are unable to physically attend school during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. While Adaptable Learning is not equivalent to in-person learning, CDS faculty and staff will provide high-quality distance learning instruction to advance student academic progress and attend to the social and emotional well-being of the student until they are able to return to school. Families may switch from in-person to Adaptable Learning at any time throughout the school year, as needed for as long as Adaptable Learning instruction is available. The Adaptable Learning option will remain in place as long as COVID-19 continues to be a concern, as determined by the Carrollwood Day School leadership team.
CDS will offer an Adaptable Learning option for families with students in PreK 4 through upper school.

Assessment & Grading Policies Assessment and Grading during Adaptable Learning Plan & Distance Learning Lower School • Adaptable Learning Plan (ALP) Adaptable Learning Plan (ALP) Lower School students will continue to receive grades for assignments completed during their time in the Adaptable Learning Program. Lower School faculty will continue to use Seesaw as a means to communicate students’ progress. Assignments may vary for the ALP student as it may be difficult to replicate summative assessments and group assignments. Taking into account the differences between learning in person versus through a digital platform, during adaptable learning, students can expect flexibility in deadlines and ample time to address questions about assignments and summative work with teachers. Students whose absence is not due to illness will need to be continuously engaged with their studies, in communication with their teachers, and completing assignments in order to remain eligible for the ALP. Assessment while in the ALP can take multiple forms: • ALP students may take assessments or complete summative projects not dependent on physical attendance in line with their in-person classmates • ALP students may take alternate versions of assessments designed to acknowledge the realities of working from home. Teachers will offer clear communication on assessment expectations and standards during class sessions, small group and individual conferences, and through in-depth postings to Seesaw All ALP students and their parents will meet regularly via Zoom with their assigned ALP instructor to review progress and communicate any needs in terms of time management or class work expectations. • Distance Learning (DL) Lower School students will continue to receive grades for assignments completed during distance learning. Lower School faculty will continue to use Seesaw as our form of communication between the teacher and the student and students’ family. Taking into account the differences between learning in person versus through a digital platform, during distance learning, students can expect flexibility in deadlines and variation in assessment format to respond to the unique needs of the digital environment. Teachers will offer clear communication on assessment expectations and standards during class sessions, small group and individual conferences, and through in-depth postings to SeeSaw. Parent conferences will be offered frequently.

Middle and Upper School • Adaptable Learning Plan (ALP) Upper School students will continue to receive grades for assignments completed during their time in the Adaptable Learning Program. Upper School faculty will continue to use Schoology as a digital grade book for ALP students, although ALP students might be exempt from assignments dependent on physical presence and have accountability for assignments only relevant to the ALP. Taking into account the differences between learning in person versus through a digital platform, during adaptable learning, students can expect flexibility in deadlines and ample time to address questions about assignments and summative work with teachers. Students whose absence is not due to illness will need to be continuously engaged with their studies, in communication with their teachers, and completing assignments in order to remain eligible for the ALP. Assessment while in the ALP can take multiple forms: • ALP students may take assessments or complete summative projects not dependent on physical attendance in line with their in-person classmates • ALP students may take assessments on campus during after-school hours and in conditions that satisfy concerns about exposure to Covid-19 by vulnerable populations. • ALP students may take alternate versions of assessments designed to acknowledge the realities of working from home. Teachers will offer clear communication on assessment expectations and standards during class sessions, small group and individual conferences, and through in-depth postings to Schoology. All ALP students will meet regularly via Zoom with their assigned ALP Counselor to review progress and communicate any needs in terms of time management or class work expectations. • Distance Learning (DL) Upper School students will continue to receive grades for assignments completed during distance learning. Upper School faculty will continue to use Schoology as a digital grade book. Taking into account the differences between learning in person versus through a digital platform, during campus-wide distance learning, students can expect flexibility in deadlines and variation in assessment format to respond to the unique needs of the digital environment. For example, all tests are assumed to be open note/open book with the assessment based on application rather than recall of knowledge and skills. In addition, projects designed to take advantage of virtual opportunities for investigation and collaboration might weigh more heavily than traditional pen and paper quizzes and tests. Teachers will offer clear communication on assessment expectations and standards during class sessions, small group and individual conferences, and through in-depth postings to Schoology.

Mandated Distance Learning Carrollwood Day School would move to all-school distance learning if mandated by the Governor or recommended by the CDC or Health Department
There may be scenarios that call for one class or division to move to distance learning temporarily, while allowing the rest of campus to remain open. In the event school must transition to full distance learning, we will prioritize continuing to offer on-campus instruction for our PreK 4 and younger students, if possible.

If possible, I think our CDS community got closer during distance learning. The innate need to check in with each other made it a natural part of our day.
