What's it like seeing the bad in everything? This is a great sign. Must suck to be so joyless. |
Yes, I thought I heard that. |
| schools are closed for the remainder of the academic year |
| schools closed for the year |
| All schools closed statewide rest of school year...not calendar year, just school year so far. |
| Sorry meant physically closed, could still do online. |
| Look at yall so eager to be the first to announce it. |
| Well that was the least surprising announcement ever. |
I get cookies! |
so funny |
| what did the superintendent say in terms of students going back to school building? Channel 8 announcer began talking as she was saying something about that. So I couldn't hear. |
| They talked about opening being in phase 3. And that things like every other day schedules could be used. Or in person instruction being limited to students with disabilities. |

Students are not going back during this school year.
She didn't say anything specific about when they'd go back beyond that. She said that schools reopening for small groups of students (e.g., for a small group of disabled students to work with social distancing in place) could be included in Stage 2. Reopening of schools with full student body returning would be in Stage 3...but that will look different than what we have been used to. The use of an A week/B week schedule or students going to school on alternating days is a possibility. Schools will have to modify operations to be in alignment with public health directives. |
Phase 3 is vaccine or effective treatment. Not anytime soon. |
School re-opening needs to be a very high priority. |
