2021 Learning
We are committed to providing frequent updates and resources. We will share information through email and text, and post all new information within this web section.
School Building Reopening - Hybrid Learning
We are planning for a return to in-person instruction, beginning March 1. This is based on state and local public health guidance to phase in small numbers of students, starting with elementary grades and students with special needs.
Public health authorities are not recommending a return to in-person instruction for middle and high school students yet.
Our plan is to bring students back for hybrid instruction (part-time in classrooms, part-time in distance learning).
Families who wish to continue in Distance Learning my opt to do so.
