Chicopee survey shows students prefer in-person learning as high schools return to full-time classes
Updated May 19, 2021;
CHICOPEE Local high school students reported being less than satisfied with remote learning in a survey conducted shortly before state officials ordered all secondary schools to return to full-time, in-person classes.
The Student Advisory Council, made up of students from a variety of grade levels at Comprehensive and Chicopee High Schools, conducted two surveys of their classmates during the COVID-19 pandemic. The overall results show students on average rated learning remotely at about 5.7 on a scale of 1 to 10, said Timothy Wagner, a Comprehensive High senior and president of the council.
