The Nevis School Board discussed learning models and the impact of distance learning on Dec. 21. Written By: Lorie R. Skarpness | 8:30 am, Dec. 30, 2020 ×
COVID-19 has been a challenging time for both students and adults. The way learning models are chosen and the impact of distance learning on student mental health were two topics the Nevis School Board discussed at the Dec. 21 meeting.
Decision making questioned
School board member Justin Isaacson asked why the school board isn’t making decisions about the various learning models being used.
“I think we need to take those powers back,” he said. “A lot of my constituents are displeased at the way it has been going. As elected officials, we should be the ones making the calls. With all of the things we have done to make the building safe and shown that the coronavirus is not spreading in the building, I would have made a different decision.”
