MCPS Board delays in-person learning plan
In Montgomery County, the School Board approved measures today to delay the first phased return of in-person instruction, with changes on which students might be allowed in first.
ROCKVILLE, Md. (FOX 5 DC) - In Maryland’s largest school district, the Board of Education voted to once again delay the start to phased-in, in-person instruction as coronavirus cases in the country continue to grow. The new date school leaders are aiming for: February 1, 2020.
At the start of Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting, recorded testimonies were played from the December 3 gathering. Several parents were heard calling for kids to get back into the classroom sooner than later. And then there was an MCPS 5th grader.
Students’ Return to Classroom Pushed Back to Feb. 1 if Metrics Are Met
The earliest Montgomery County Public School students will return to the classroom is Feb. 1 and that only will occur if the county’s COVID-19 positivity rate is 5% or below and there are fewer than 15 new cases for every 100,000 residents, the Board of Education unanimously agreed Dec. 15.
Tuesday, the positivity rate was 6.1% and the average number of cases during the past seven days was 43.7 per 100,00 residents.
The board also unanimously agreed that when those health metrics are met, students would return to the classroom according to a phased in system, starting with students with special needs, followed by elementary school students and students in the career and technical education program.
