Tiered Reengagement

2025-2026 Desert Learning Academy Elementary Tiered Reengagement System

When families join Desert Learning Academy, they join a learning community that participates fully and supports one another. The choice to join means you agree to:

100% Zoom Attendance and Participation
a. Students will actively participate in all daily Zoom classes with cameras turned on.
b. All See Saw assignments will be turned in daily
Academic Mastery
a. STAR Assessments

The staff of DLA agrees to provide a level of support to ensure the highest level of student success possible within our program. The following Tier Support and Engagement systems hold us accountable for helping students learn. This system also has students and families accountable to be engaged in this learning process as well. Students are required to complete work daily, attend support appointments, and give full effort. Elementary families are required to support their students through academic support, emotional encouragement, accountability, and engaging with DLA educators.
