Earlier this week, Clinton Schools officials laid out their guidelines for remote learning. 

Superintendent Curt Nettles indicates they are working with an outside vendor to provide the learning materials for those students that have opted into the remote learning program. He explains there will be a program for K-5 students and 6-12 students. 

There will be a role teachers play in the K-5 grading of the materials, but most will be done through the program. Nettles says he is working to arrange a webinar for their company to teach parents about the program and help create accounts for everyone.

The decision for students to remain in the remote learning curriculum will be final. According to Nettles, because the district is paying for the program, they are asking families to use the program all the way through the first semester. 

Again, the deadline to opt into the remote learning program is this Monday, August 17. Nettles indicates families can make their indication at the time of registration.

Students K-5, 6th graders, freshman and any new students report to school on Wednesday, August 19 with everyone in class Thursday, August 20.
