SOUTH DEERFIELD Three of the four local boards of health approved a motion this week for the Frontier and Union 38 regional school districts to remain in remote learning through Jan. 8.
As Conway’s Board of Health did not have a quorum, a separate meeting will be held to vote on the motion.
The vote followed a discussion by members of the Sunderland, Deerfield, Whately and Conway boards of health at a joint meeting Tuesday night. The discussion began with a recommendation from Deerfield Board of Health member Carolyn Shores Ness to resume remote learning on Jan. 4 and to resume hybrid learning on Jan. 7.
