CDLS is offering Learning Recovery short courses to provide “learning recovery” opportunities designed to help prepare students for success in future math and English courses. These “short courses” will focus on reviewing and mastering the essential skills and standards that will serve as the foundation for future learning and success.
These “short courses” are designed to be completed in 4-8 weeks and will allow students to progress at a pace appropriate for them.

Recovery
These “short courses” can be offered by districts for either “for credit” or “non-credit” options dependent on district policy and designations.
Each CDLS short course will have an online instructor to provide support and monitoring and CDLS will partner with districts and schools to establish local supports to assist students to be successful. These short courses, as well as other summer courses, can also be delivered by district instructors.
