GROSSE POINTE WOODS, Mich. – Metro Detroit schools are struggling and scrambling to keep everyone safe after spring break.
Many districts are going virtual again. However, one private school is going in a different direction. It’s returning to the “party tent” learning model.
It is an approach that seems to be gaining popularity among students. Many hope it protects students from the coronavirus.
“It starts with physical distance in the classroom,” said Bart Bronk, head of University Liggett School in Grosse Pointe Woods, adding that there is a focus on keeping students as far apart from each other as possible.
