School Board President Angie Taylor said it is not as easy “as flipping a switch now that more students are allowed in classrooms and on school buses. It s transportation. It s nutrition services. It s allocations. It’s 75 percent max in each classroom, and getting students in. It s substitutes. It s all of that, Taylor said about the difficulty in changing school models with three months left in the school year.
Taylor said while the district has rolled out plans for how athletics will work, staff will have more information about how academics could change under a loosening of restrictions.
At last month s school board meeting, trustees did ask district staff to work toward doing as much as possible for seniors, including looking at options to have them back in classrooms five days a week.
