Several school board members pressed for expanding school building access as education leaders met virtually Tuesday to discuss plans for 2021.
Under one scenario, schools would open to in-person classes to all who wish to attend five days a week starting Jan. 19.
âOpen the doggone schools,â school board member Matthew Sampson said. âLet the kids in and staff return who so choose to do so.â
A special meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday for a school board vote.
Other plans expanding school access involve inviting limited numbers of students two to four days a week for a shorter school day with computers continuing as the primary learning platform. Yet another proposal would give principals leeway to decide how best to expand access at their buildings. The school district has about 35 schools.
