The latest information on the upcoming school year
- Synopsis of Video with Links to Topics
- Overview of options
- A2 Student Link and A2 Classroom Connect very similar offering AAPS teachers, curricula and programming tied to your school, the difference is A2 Student Link for families intending to remain virtual for semester/year while Classroom Connect will return to school when safe
- A2 Virtual is independent learning, self-paced, and meeting with AAPS teacher about once a week
- If interested in something like the traditional school setting would recommend A2 Classroom Connect
- If interested in self-paced or asynchronous learning would recommend A2 Virtual
- If want virtual for first half of year, but want synchronous learning with AAPS teacher would recommend A2 Student Link
- For A2 Student Link and Classroom Connect daily schedule will include advisory to help with teacher-student connections, a block schedule with three classes, each block 100 minutes with a mix of synchronous and asynchronous time, end day with a check-out for additional social-emotional connections
- Block schedule to reduce the number of daily transitions and to allow time for both synchronous and asynchronous learning
- Even though starting virtual important for middle school students to see friends and other students
- Still offering mix of electives to help middle school students discover their interests, possibly including options that haven’t been available to students in the past
