As Plymouth-Canton Community Schools administrators prepared for the first school board meeting of 2021 inside their downtown Plymouth offices Tuesday afternoon, a student-orchestrated rally unfolded on the sidewalk in front of the district s two-story brick building on Harvey Street.
Braving bone-chilling conditions under gray, gloomy skies appropriate for a pandemic-era protest the sign-waving throng reiterated their desperate plea that it was time to return to in-person learning 10 months after the COVID-19 pandemic shut the district s yet-to-reopen middle and high school classrooms. I think it s great that the community is getting together to fight for something we want, and we want to get back in the schools for face-to-face learning, Nina Dorigo, a Plymouth High School senior, said. It s important to us that we get to go back to school, at least for the final semester.
