When school resumes after Winter Break, students in the Maricopa Unified School District will be distance-learning â for the first week at least.
That was the unanimous decision Thursday night by the MUSD Governing Board, which met in special session to consider the latest COVID-19 transmission data and decide how students will learn.
Board members agreed their decisions should be data-driven. But there is one issue with the data provided by Pinal County. It is two weeks old when the board gets it.
