Gov. TimWalzâs recently updated order that elementary schools can begin in-person or hybrid learning starting January 18, 2021 is still leaving students behind.
For father Terry Otremba, getting his 13-year-old daughter Addison back into school is a must, he shared with Fox 9. Born with a rare chromosome abnormality, Addison has struggled under a full distance learning model. Walzâs changes didnât mention students with special needs, which âdisappointedâ Otremba, Fox 9 continued.
âIâm hoping what Governor Walz said today about getting them back in the classroom about the elementary kids fits in with special education as well,â said Otremba. âGet them in the class as soon as possible, because they are dying right now in some sense.â
