ACPS defines blended learning as the deliberate connection of educational technology with face-to-face instruction to enhance and personalize a deep and meaningful curriculum. For ACPS, blended learning is a natural way for students and teachers to maximize our educational technology resources available in our Digital Toolkit with our engaging and challenging curriculum to ensure that every student succeeds. Blended learning touches on all aspects of the ACPS 2020 Strategic Plan , including ensuring academic excellence and educational equity as well as maintaining an exemplary staff, optimal facilities, and learning environment.
