“Cobb Schools will continue to offer families a choice between face-to-face and remote classrooms for the second semester of the 2020-21 school year. The second semester begins on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, and ends on Wednesday, May 26, 2021.
To be prepared to best support your student(s), we are asking your family to make your selection anytime between Sunday, November 15th, and Sunday, November 29th. You may change your selection anytime during this window of time. If a parent has not made their selection by the time the portal closes, they'll be asked to contact their local school to inform them of their decision.
The Choice Portal will operate just like it did during the first semester, and all health, safety, and instructional details for the entire 2020-2021 school year can be found at www.cobblearningeverywhere.com.
To make your classroom selection for the second semester, please:
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 user name 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.
Cobb school leaders also decided to add a third-Choice window because of the ever-changing nature of COVID-19 and not knowing how COVID-19 will impact students and families throughout the winter. The additional opportunity will provide parents as much flexibility as possible.
Details, including specific dates and instructions, on how to access the third-Choice portal will be provided by mid-winter.
As we continue to be committed to offering you choice, Cobb's commitment to health and safety will continue as well. You can learn more about Cobb Schools' enhanced health and safety protocols, which are keeping Cobbs students as healthy and safe as possible, by clicking here.
We recognize that this school year has already been full of challenges. We know we cannot address every way COVID-19 has impacted your lives, but we can continue to give families safe and healthy face-to-face and remote classroom options for as long as public health conditions in Cobb County allow.
We sincerely thank you for your support and partnership as a member of the Cobb Schools Team and look forward to supporting your student(s) for the rest of the 2020-2021 school year.
