An Update on the Return to Five-Day-a-Week In-Person Learning
Recently, the BOSC approved a return to full in-person learning for the week of May 3, which would allow two weeks after the bulk of district personnel receive their second COVID-19 vaccine shot as well as time during April Vacation to prepare for the return.
Since then however, New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu issued an executive order taking place on April 19 requiring all schools to return to full in-person learning with some exceptions.

MANCHESTER, N.H. – The Manchester Board of School Committee voted 13-0 on Wednesday night to amend the Manchester School District’s re-entry plan, accelerating the return of in-person instruction after learning that teachers would start getting COVID-19 vaccinations this week.
The plan amendment has three parts.
First, the six-foot minimum for social distancing has been reduced to three feet. This comes from Department of Health and Human Services guidelines indicating that three feet is acceptable if other mitigation efforts are in place, with Manchester School District Superintendent Dr. John Goldhardt noting numerous infrastructure upgrades to school ventilation systems as well as frequent deep cleanings across the district.
