The Kannapolis Board of Education voted unanimously at a special called meeting on Tuesday to give all students the option of Plan A starting April 12. Students will go back to school four days a week per the recommendation of Superintendent Chip Buckwell.
âI recommend to the Board of Education that Kannapolis City Schools enter back into Plan A in-person instruction with a student-family option of continuing remote instruction on April 1, 2021,â Buckwellâs recommendation reads. âI recommend that April 1, 2021 be a remote-instruction day for all students with our next day of instruction being April 12.â
Buckwell initially recommended students come back five days a week, but after discussion among board members, the recommendation was changed to four days a week with an asynchronous learning day on Fridays.
