A New Jersey judge has ordered teachers to make a partial return to classrooms one week after a group of parents and students held a sit-in demanding an end to remote learning.
Superior Court Judge Jodi Alper ruled in favor of restarting sixth and ninth grade in-person classes in New Jersey's South Orange-Maplewood School District on Tuesday. The move was the latest development in an ongoing battle between teachers and school employees concerned about safety due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the school district and parents in favor of fully reopening. The classes are set to resume on Monday in classrooms that the teacher's union has agreed are acceptable. Decisions to resume other classes could be decided at an April 19 court date.
