OUR RESPONSE TO COVID-19 GRADING SCALES AND POLICIES CHS did not administer final exams for students, which typically account for 15% of a student’s final grade in any given course, at the conclusion of the 2019-2020 school year. Consequently, students’ third and fourth-quarter grades were averaged to calculate their final transcript grade. GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS CHS lifted students’ community service requirement for the 2019-2020 school year. INSTRUCTIONAL METHODS Per Georgia state mandate, CHS shifted to virtual learning via Zoom on March 13, 2020, and students did not return to on-campus instruction for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. Being that CHS has a one-to-one technology initiative, the shift to virtual learning was seamless. The first two weeks of virtual learning were asynchronous, and the school transitioned to virtual synchronous instruction for the remaining six weeks of the school year. For the current 2020-2021 school year, CHS has two options for students. A student may choose at any time to attend in-person classroom instruction or remain at home for virtual synchronous instruction. This adjustment was established for families who did not feel comfortable sending their student(s) to an on-campus setting, COVID-19+ cases, contact-quarantined students, and immune-compromised students. Students may choose
