Hybrid Learning Plan (A/B days)
October 2, 2020 -- The Board of Education approved a hybrid learning plan (A/B days) for grades 6-12 at Wednesday's meeting, giving administration the discretion to determine when to implement, and when to return to seated classes. The motivation behind this recommendation was to keep our students in school as long as we possibly can and avoid a full school closure.. The number of students and staff being quarantined, particularly at the high school level (grades 9-12) has been very high and is disruptive to the educational process. In order to reduce the number of students in the building, and therefore allow students and staff to socially distance and avoid quarantining, we will be transitioning to a hybrid learning plan for students in grades 9-12 beginning Friday, October 9. Our plan allows us to implement at the MS level, but there are several issues we need to address before that decision is made.
High school students will be divided into two groups. Students in group A will be in seated classes Monday and Wednesday, with virtual learning Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Students in Group B will be in seated classes Tuesday and Thursday, with virtual learning Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Detailed information will be disseminated at the high school level, but the plan itself can be found here.
The hybrid plan also includes restrictions on athletic events in grades 7-12, with limited capacity at events, through the use of vouchers. Details of this plan can be found here.
We are appreciative of our parents' and students' patience as we do our very best to ensure student and staff safety, while still providing an in-person educational experience to the greatest degree possible. Parents are encouraged to contact their child's building administrator if you have any questions.
