Jeffco Remote Learning Program Update

March 19, 2021
Jeffco has addressed questions about GT programming and courses under the JRLP for the 2021-2022 school year. 
Please see the Jeffco Remote Learning Program website for the latest information. 
https://www.jeffcopublicschools.org/cms/one.aspx?portalId=627965&pageId=15828478

​See this page for information on:
  • Comparing Jeffco in-person and remote learning options
  • Comparing Jeffco Virtual Academy and remote learning options
  • Selecting remote learning in Enroll Jeffco
  • Course offerings for elementary, middle and high school

Scroll to the bottom under "Frequently Asked Questions and More Information" and select the Specialized Programming tab for GT programming information:

Jeffco Specialized Programming Information
When will we know exactly what specialized programming (GT, ESL, Etc.) will be provided in the remote learning program?


  • We are currently building the systems, courses, and staffing necessary to provide all students with a comprehensive, high quality, consistent, equitable remote learning environment.  
  • We will absolutely provide specialized services to all students at the Central Remote option school, and continue to support the implementation of Individualized Career and Academic Plans (ICAP),  Advanced Learning Plans (ALP) and Individualized Learning Plans (IEP).  At this time we cannot guarantee any Center programming model for the Remote Learning option. These will be dependent on the number of students who might enroll in a Center model and in the resources available to support that model.
  • In the meantime, if your first priority is to enroll in the exact programming offered at your home school, we recommend that you enroll in person at your home school.  If your first priority is being in a remote learning environment, then we recommend that you enroll in our remote central program and begin working with us to meet your other priorities and needs.
What about GT specifically?  Will our Center Program spot be held?
  • We will absolutely provide services to all Gifted & Talented (GT) students at the Central Remote option school, and continue to support the implementation of the Advanced Learning Plans (ALPs) for all gifted learners.  We will assign GT Resource Teacher (GT RT) support to that Central Remote school as we would any other school to facilitate GT identification, programming, ALP implementation, educator professional learning and parent / family support.  
  • At this time we cannot guarantee a GT Center programming model, with classes taught by GT-endorsed teachers, for the Remote Learning option.  This will be dependent on the number of currently-enrolled GT Center students who choose the remote option and in the resources available to support that model.  If the GT Center Remote Learning option is not available due to lack of sufficient enrollment, families who had selected that option in EnrollJeffco would be able to choose the face-to-face option until August 31st and would not lose their current spot in the GT center school in which they are currently enrolled.  If we are able to offer the GT Center Remote Learning option for the 2021-22 school year, families could either continue on in that remote learning option OR return to the in-person GT Center spot at their school for the 2022-23 school year.
General Information on Jeffco Remote Learning Program
Jeffco Public Schools is launching a new remote learning option for the 2021-22 school year - the Jeffco Remote Learning Program (JRLP). In response to high demand from our families, this program was created as an alternate education environment that suits students who find success in remote learning.
  • JRLP students will be officially enrolled in their school of choice, but will participate in this remote learning program. Students who choose JRLP will remain connected to their current school for communications, athletics, events, all school activities, assemblies, dances, and maintain a virtual connection with current school staff on a regular, weekly basis.
  • The JRLP will offer synchronous learning (synchronous online learning means that students are required to log in and participate in class at a specific time each week with live instruction and engagement between students and teacher). The amount of synchronous learning will differ by grade and course.
  • Jeffco teachers will teach Jeffco curricula.
  • Special Education, GT, ESL, SEL, and counseling services and support will be available.
