Charter schools go remote
Coeur d'Alene Press | UPDATED 5 years, 9 months AGO
Students of two local charter schools are continuing their studies online at home as other area schools make preparations for home instruction following mass closures in response to coronavirus.
Coeur d’Alene Charter Academy began completely online instruction Monday. North Idaho STEM Charter Academy launched its remote learning Tuesday.
“Most of my assignments were already online. The only difference is photocopying my math assignments and sending those to my teacher,” North Idaho STEM sophomore Josh McKenna said during a phone conversation this morning. “It’s not a huge shock. If I just work during the school day then I’ll be fine. And I actually quite like this because I don’t want my school year to be extended and I want to enjoy my summer break.”
Coeur d’Alene School District is offering “At Home Learning” resources for families at www.cdaschools.org.
