Early Childhood Education

During the 2021-2021 school year, the CSIU will be implementing Google Classroom, which is part of the Google Apps (GAFE) Suite. Google Classroom is a learning management system (LMS) that will be used by CSIU teachers to make announcements, record videos, post assignments, host virtual meetings, and share resources for your student.

How does it work?

Hardware

In preparation for the 20/21 school year, the CSIU has procured a limited amount of devices for students enrolled in our CSIU early childhood programs. These devices will be provided by programs on an as-needed basis as long as the devices are available.  

Connectivity

The CSIU recognizes that many of our students do not have access to reliable high-speed internet. In an attempt to provide an equitable educational experience for all of our students, the CSIU will help facilitate connectivity for students. In the event a student/family is unable to secure an internet connection on their own, the CSIU/home district will help the family troubleshoot their options in an area.  Parents should communicate any connectivity needs directly with the supervisor of their student's program.

Support

Although we may not be able to be physically together during this time, the CSIU is still here to support all of our students and families. Should families/students have questions regarding technology including logons, connectivity, classroom support, etc. they should communicate with the program supervisor directly using the contact information that was provided upon enrollment in the program.  The CSIU will also maintain a student/family tech support email (ECEStudentGoogleSupport@csiu.org) for general technical support.
