On Friday the Cobb County School District said it would open another choice window for parents between in-person and remote learning from Feb. 15-28.
The options families choose will begin starting March 15 and will continue through the end of the 2020-2021 school year.
Students whose parents do not make a choice during the latest window will continue learning as they began with the spring semester in January.
The district announced in November another window would become available, given the uncertain status of COVID-19 in the county. Nearly 66 of Cobb’s 107,000 students reported for in-person classes for the spring.
But one week in January was all-remote due to growing COVID-19 case numbers and staff and students in quarantine.
On Friday the Cobb school district reported 339 new confirmed cases, the lowest figure since mid-December.
Here’s more from what the district released on Friday:
To make your classroom selection, families should follow the steps below:
1. Make sure the adult who first enrolled each student (the enrolling adult) completes the choice process. Attempting to complete the process as another adult will not work.
2. Use your preferred computing device to navigate to ParentVUE by clicking HERE or by opening the ParentVUE app on your mobile device.
3. Log in with your username and password. If you have forgotten your password, click the Forgot Password link on the login page.
4. Once you are signed in to ParentVUE, direct your attention to the left-hand side menu and select the Back to School Choice menu item.
5. On the Back to School Choice page, find each of your registered students listed, along with the two learning options (FACE-TO-FACE or continue FULL REMOTE) for each.
6. Choose the option that best fits the needs of your student(s) and family.
