Cohort Schedule

Dear iLEAD AV Families,

As we continue to navigate unprecedented times, it is important to maintain continuity for our learners so that they have every opportunity to grow academically. We originally set the cohort schedule so that you and your learners would have access to varied academic experiences. Upon reviewing the schedule for the next semester, we’ve found that we have five Mondays over the spring semester in which Cohort A will miss a Monday with Zoom instruction. Cohort B is not impacted by this loss of instruction, as they attend Zoom instruction Tuesday through Thursday. That would be many hours missed with their facilitator at a critical time. Because of this, we will be adjusting the schedule on those weeks, and your learners will now have school a half day on the Fridays on weeks we are out on that Monday.

Below are the dates of instruction in which Cohort A will attend classes on Friday from 9:00 AM-12:30 PM:

  • January 15
  • January 22
  • February 19
  • April 16
  • June 4

We hope you are not inconvenienced by the change. Please know we’ve made this decision in an effort to ensure your learners have every opportunity to grow academically.

With gratitude,

Dawn Roberson
iLEAD Antelope Valley Director
