MCPS will be presenting a draft plan for what school will look like in the fall to the BOE at Tuesday's BOE meeting (scheduled for 12:10 pm). We have received some information about what is expected to be in the plan.

It is our understanding that MCPS is planning to bring back students in transition grades (pre-K/K, 6, and 9) first, and other grades in phases. School schedules in person and online will vary by school (ES/MS/HS).  Students in all grades will start the year online, and MCPS hopes to have all willing students back in school buildings for 1-2 days a week by Thanksgiving.  Some of the bigger challenges include transportation (12 students on a bus instead of up to 77) and having enough teachers to teach smaller classes in person while simultaneously teaching students in online classes at home. MCPS is hoping to have some students back in buildings 2 times a week as early as September (but not from day one).  They just don’t think all students will be back in buildings 1-2 days a week until later in the fall.

MCPS is considering the parent feedback from the survey, adjusting its plans based on feedback, and intending to request public feedback on the fall plans this month.

There will be an online only option for families, just as with other jurisdictions. Fairfax County is promising at least 2 days/week in school, and 2 days online, and Arlington County is planning 2 days/week in school and distance learning on 3 days.  MCPS is looking at students in school 2 days/week, too.[/quote]
