In other business at Monday’s 45-minute meeting, Supt. Dave Murphy reported that district officials are in discussion with representatives of about 10 other districts about possibly collaborating next year on remote learning, if needed again because of Covid-19. He said it can be challenging for teachers to simultaneously juggle in-person and remote learning, and sharing staff and students remotely in some situations might be helpful.
