Prom, graduation plans in the works
After a long year of distance learning, the end is finally in sight for students who spent part or all of the past year learning from home.
The Woonsocket Education Department announced a plan last week to bring students back to class five days per week. With the exception of kindergarten and pre-K students, who are already back to school full-time, students have been on a combination of fully distanced and hybrid learning schedules all year.
Next Monday, April 5, students in grade 6 at Woonsocket Middle School and grades 9 and 12 at Woonsocket High School will return to in-person learning five days per week. Next Tuesday, they’ll be joined by grades 1 and 2. Elementary school students will attend school four days a week through early May to allow students who chose to continue distance learning to come into the school for testing on Mondays.
