We Need Your Input: Parent Survey on Distance Learning Plan and School Reopening
Please take this brief, yet important survey to help guide our school and district as we consider staffing needs and models for teaching next year whether physically in person in a classroom, online in a virtual classroom, or a combination of both. The purpose of this survey is to measure you and your child’s experience this 2019-20 academic year, and to assist schools in planning for the 2020-21 school year. Parents/guardians of current students will also be asked about interest in continuing their student’s education in CVESD for grades 7 and 8. The survey takes just a few minutes. Take Survey

Computer Devices & WIFI on Loan to Families
In order to support continued learning over the summer for all students, we have changed the return dates of laptops and WIFI hotspots. Revised dates will allow students to access our digital instructional programs, including Achieve 3000, Benchmark Universe, Smarty Ants, i-Ready, and other available online learning resources during the summer break. Return “dates” are as follows:
- Preschool to Grade 6 students who we know are leaving our District/feeder area should return laptops and hotspots prior to office closure on June 12. Please return your device or WIFI hotspot Monday-Friday between 8:00-3:00 to the front office.
- Preschool to Grade 5 students who will remain in our District next year, will keep laptops and hotspots through the summer break. When school begins next year, we will let you know about the device return.
- Current 6th graders who will be attending our feeder Sweetwater middle schools will keep their laptops and hotspots until our school offices open next year. We will let you know the plan for collecting 6th-grade devices before students begin middle school. You will be notified by a SchoolMessenger call and email.
