2023-2024 NTI Guidance
What is non-traditional instruction (NTI)?
- Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) days were granted by the Kentucky Department of Education and can be utilized by a district when necessary (i.e. inclement weather or widespread illness) as a means to provide instruction so that make-up days are not added to the calendar.
- At any point in the year, CCPS students may be asked to participate in NTI.
- For periods of NTI, students will be tasked with reviewing previously learned material as well as new material.
- Grading requirements will be consistent with regular face-to-face instructional practice.
CCPS will communicate through multiple means when school is canceled. The announcement will be made no later than 5:30 AM (or earlier) through our Infinite Campus Messaging all-call system, text, local and regional news outlets, district webpage, and social media.
