Extended COVID-19 Learning Plan Resources

The following documents have been developed to support the creation, implementation, and accountability of Extended COVID-19 Learning Plans as established in PA 149 and modified by PA-0165.  While much care has been taken to represent both the intent and spirit of the law, district leaders are encouraged to become familiar with the appropriate statute language as these documents are not a substitute for the legislation or official MDE guidance.

What timeline are we actually using when completing the GEMS Reconfirmation Submission? Info from CEPI:

• The December survey is for how your district plans to provide instruction to students for the month of December, which should have been decided in a November board meeting. If the board is meeting again on December 21st, they will be reconfirming how instruction will be provided for the month of January which means you will submit the plan from that meeting in the January submission. Essentially, the data you report to CEPI is for the preceding month’s board meeting.
