El Paso educators are receiving COVID-19 vaccinations at a more rapid pace, but many already have been teaching classes in person since last year, with more set to return to school campuses soon.
Some El Paso school districts also are considering whether to continue offering remote instruction in the summer and fall.
Students whose parents opted for remote learning have been able to learn virtually at all Texas schools this school year, and that will continue for the remainder of the school year, not including the summer, the Texas Education Agency said.
Summer school is separate and is handled by school districts, although districts can, and many will, offer virtual learning for summer classes, according to the TEA.
