Utica Community Schools is currently making plans for the
remainder of the 2020-2021 school year.
These plans include preparing schedules for the second semester, which
begins January 4.
As we create schedules and allocate staff, we need to know
how many students will be enrolled in in-person/remote instruction or in the
UCS Virtual Academy for the second semester.
In person/remote learning option
will allow your student to transition to in-person learning when health and
safety factors permit us to return to our classrooms. Parents who make this
choice are committing to having their students attend school under any of the
following situations:
· Fully
in-person at any time
· Hybrid
model (half days)
· Fully
remote
The UCS Virtual Academy is the district’s fully
on-line option. Your student would remain in a virtual learning environment
through the remainder of this school year.
Regardless of which option you choose, your student will be
taught by qualified Utica Community Schools teachers with curriculum that will
be parallel across the various learning environments.
Please take some time to discuss which option best works for
your family. We are also here to assist
should you have any questions. Again, your choice will remain in effect until
the end of the school year.
As we engage the planning process, we are asking that you
inform us of your choice by 11:59 p.m. on November 15. You can make your choice by clicking on this
link. A
Frequently Asked Question page regarding these choices is also available at
this link. Again,
your choice will remain in effect until the end of the school year. If you do
not make a selection, we will keep you in your current learning plan.
