Chromebooks: Devices and chargers were sent home with all students on Friday, September 3. Students who are currently home without devices, may pick those up at the school office starting at 7:00 AM on Tuesday morning, September 7.
Structured day: To ensure the best possible continuity of instruction, CMS will use a condensed daily schedule that mirrors students’ regular school schedule. This structure is designed to support families in planning the day, communicating expectations to caregivers who may be assisting students with online learning, and helping students stay on track.
Class time and break time: This schedule expects 30 minutes of dedicated time per class each day, including specials classes, with a 15-minute break between classes to stretch and prepare for the next subject.
Video and video-conferencing: Instruction will include teacher video content, both live and recorded, to provide students with more direct instruction opportunities.
Attendance: Per Ohio law, daily student attendance is expected. Participation in the regularly scheduled classes is the primary way students will show attendance. Absences from learning due to illness or other reason must be reported to the school office on the day of the absence.
Alternate Attendance Situations: It is understood that some students may be unable to access their online school work during the day. In these cases, families will need to contact the school or the child’s teachers to ensure that we can account for the student’s attendance and make needed accommodations. The regular schedule will always be the best option for supporting student learning where possible.
Basic Schedule: 30-minute daily instructional blocks with 15 minutes between

Canvas Access: Canvas will be an essential communication platform throughout the year for both remote and face-to-face learning.
Students should access Canvas through the link on CMS Student Resources Page of the Crestview website. This is the default page on their school-issued Chromebooks.
