Plans for the 20-21 School Year

Our first day for the new school year is August 13, 2020.  At this point we are not sure what school will look like.  Hopefully, all restrictions will be lifted and we can return to a normal year.  If things do not change in regards to the Corona Virus, we may have some type of hi-bred schedule that may include half of our students attending in the morning and the other half in the afternoon.  At this point we are not sure what the future holds, but we are exploring many options.  

One of those options to the regular classroom is a Long Term Independent Study Program.  Many families have come to appreciate the distance learning model.  Other families are concerned about coming back to school too early amid the Corona Virus.  The answer for these families could be the Bass Lake Long Term Independent Study Program.  This program could be an option for families that want the flexibility of not attending school every day.  The student would meet weekly with a dedicated independent study teacher who would assign work and teach new concepts and ideas.  Each week new work would be assigned and work from the previous week would be collected.   Bass Lake would provide all the materials and technology necessary to run the program.  If sports or band were offered,  Long Term Independent Study Students would be allowed to participate as well.  Again, this would be an option to the regular classroom.  

If you are interested in the program, come by the school office and get more information and an application.  We are trying get an idea about the number of families that are interested in this type of educational model.  If you are interested either call the school office or email Mr. Barcus at bbarcus@basslakesd.org.  The application is also available under the MORE tab at the top of the page.
