Although school districts are following different learning models, administrations across Greater New Bedford agree that this year has been one of the most challenging in their career.
As COVID-19 rapidly spread across the country, schools quickly adapted to a new learning environment. Virtual, online, remote, distance learning students across the nation were logging onto their computers and accessing lessons from the comfort of their homes.
Education did not surrender to the pandemic. Everyone took the responsibility of powering through each day and provided a supportive environment. Although 2020 has been full of challenges, our NBPS team has persevered, taken the initiative, been compassionate and has demonstrated character to meet these challenges, said NBPS Superintendent Thomas Anderson in a statement. I must express my deep appreciation for their extra efforts in navigating this year that has been like none before it.
