Snow Days...

With the winter upon us and a regular snow pattern hitting the Baltimore area weekly, what are the students and tutors at CHA to do? Well, the Academy follows the Carroll County school weather delays and closings. However, the students do not receive unlimited days at home with nothing to do.

Tutors at CHA are vigilant about keeping up with the syllabus schedule and while everyone loves several good days of sledding each winter, moms also desire that the school schedule to stay in tact throughout those cold weather months. So, in the case of snowy days and school closings, CHA tutors send updated homework assignments that will keep students learning at home with a little extra guidance from mom. Fortunately, with modern internet resources, teaching videos and worksheet resources, tutors are able to make quick adjustments to keep the students busy.

The CHA calendar is “fixed” so the year cannot be extended due to extreme weather. Thanks to the faithful tutors and parents who want to keep their children busy with academics, CHA students will still be done near the end of May. And those spring temperatures and warm, sunny skies are looking better and better each day!
