Distance Learning

If Campus Closes, Learning Continues …

Distance Learning at The Stanley Clark School provides a nurturing and collaborative academic environment for students at every grade level.

In the event that we are unable to meet on campus for an extended period of time, our students may engage in Distance Learning guided by our highly-qualified faculty in ways that continue to reflect the mission of the school. 

Direct instruction, as well as engaging hands-on learning, provides students with both support for mastering new concepts and reinforcement. Students may engage in both synchronous and asynchronous learning experiences. Led by our classroom teachers, students take part in regular instruction and class interaction through Zoom meetings, receiving feedback and guidance on assignments and projects.

Ensuring that a Stanley Clark education continues in age-appropriate ways is our goal regardless of whether we are on campus or not.

2020-21 Campus Reopening Plan

The Stanley Clark School is actively planning and preparing for the safe reopening of campus for the 2020-21 academic year. The safety of our students, faculty and staff is of utmost importance and top of mind as protocols and procedures are being developed. 

We are excited to welcome students back to campus for an in-person learning experience, as well as offer a virtual option, called "Clark at Home," allowing those who may choose or need to be temporarily home-based to attend on-campus classes in real time from home.

Parent Testimonials

Student Having a One-on-One Zoom Meeting with Teacher

"Mrs. Sharp went out of her way on Friday to talk with my 1st grader for half an hour. She was so thankful by the end that she was in tears. Mrs. Sharp said she could Zoom one-on-one with her every Friday to help her with math. This made her day! She is really missing her teachers and was so grateful. I have been so grateful for the commitment and love the teachers have for the students." 

- Nicole Staton, Current SCS Parent

"As a parent, I am learning through Distance Learning too. While I remember these phonics rules, I don't remember being taught the way the teachers are showing my children. It is excellent and I appreciate even more the education my children are receiving. This is more proof that Stanley Clark does not just teach to help pass tests or to make it to the next grade level but to mold the students into forever learners."

"I am so thankful to be connected to a school that cares so much about my children and their education. Our teachers have kept our children appropriately engaged and challenged during this new experience of distance learning. We miss them so much, but remain connected vis Zoom meetings and audio comments about submitted work. Thank you SCS!"
