Home Instruction
Hello Home Instruction Families,
I hope all is well with you and your family. My name is Josh Mangold. I am the Manager of Blended Virtual Programming and Home and Hospital Services for Cecil County Public Schools. Due to staffing realignment across the district, I have assumed responsibility for overseeing the Home Instruction program that was previously managed by Mr. Jack Drew. The process for portfolio submission and review will remain the same for the 2026-2027 school year. Portfolio reviews will be due in January and May. There will be email correspondence the first week of December concerning the January portfolio submissions. I have been working with Mr. Drew while assuming responsibilities for Home Instruction and will be using many of the same communication templates that you are used to seeing.
Dara Montgomery will continue to be the Administrative Secretary responsible for Home Instruction. If you need to contact us at the Office of Home Instruction, please continue to use the same email that you have been using, homeinstruction@ccps.org or you may contact us by phone at 410-996-5490.
Sincerely,
Joshua W. Mangold
