The Marion County Board of Education meets for an emergency meeting on Jan. 22, 2021 to discuss school reentry.
The ruling requires some in-person instruction for grades K-8 regardless of the color on the state’s COVID-19 risk map.
All 55 county school systems are now offering some in-person classes. In some places, school might be held in brick-and-mortar buildings a full five days a week, but in others, some have shortened days, and some are blended alternating between in-person and remote throughout the week.
Fully remote learning is no longer permitted for students in kindergarten through middle school, and high schools are only allowed to be remote when a county is red on the state’s coronavirus map.
