[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have updated information regarding this topic. Our family is looking to leave DCPS but only for 5 day a week in person school. [/quote]

SB 1303, which requires Virginia districts to have 5 days in-person in fall, passed the General Assembly and is sitting at the Governor's desk. Indications are that he will sign it.

Faquier County is already at 4 days/week and encouraging as many families as possible to do in-person. Loudon is pretty strongly pushing for 5 days in fall. Fairfax is dragging their feet on it, superintendent was on CNN claiming distancing was a problem.[/quote]

I can’t find the actual text of SB 1303. Can you find it? I’ve read conflicting info on what it says in different articles and I cannot find what the actual resolution is that passed. [/quote]

Here, it's linked from the bill site. You just have to make sure you have the right session (the special, not the regular).

You want the House Committee substitute, which is what's sitting on Northam's desk while he signs a bunch of other things right now.[/quote]

Thank you!

It looks like this bill relies on undetermined metrics. Am I reading that right?  This isn’t quite the solid bill I was hoping for. But maybe I’m not reading it right. The media seems to think this will get kids back to school 5 days a week.
