The district announced yesterday the delay of bringing students back on campus in Plan B. Instead, all students will begin the school year in online instruction. The first two weeks of school for all students will focus on orientation, meet and greet opportunities, and distribution of supplies. Students will not be initially divided into groups A, B, C during the first two weeks.
The first day of school for students’ online instruction:
- Week of August 3: Early College
- August 13: Modified*
- August 17: Traditional and Year-Round
*The start date for Modified calendar schools has been changed from Aug. 3 to Aug. 13.
During this transitional period the district will focus on its readiness for welcoming students back on campus while also monitoring guidance from local and state health officials. As we prepare for students to return to campus, we will prioritize returning Pre-K and Regional Programs students on September 8 to daily classroom instruction, without weekly rotations. More information on these programs will follow.
