ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Some families in New Mexico’s largest school district are gearing up to send their kids back to the classroom in just under three weeks.
For some people, that day can’t come soon enough, but others said they feel like they need more time to prepare.
APS schools will reopen for full in-person learning April 5, but students will have the option to remain virtual.
“They will not be going back to the classroom,” said Mary Sisneros, an APS parent.
Sisneros said her children will remain virtual through the rest of the year due to health concerns. Sisneros said she has lupus and her husband has cancer, which has made things extra tough during the pandemic.
