Seattle Schools says many essential staff will be called back to classrooms in March By
at 5:31 pm
Seattle Public Schools informed hundreds of teachers and other school staff that they may be among those called back to buildings beginning March 8 to teach in-person classes.
This is before the district reaches a reopening agreement with Seattle Education Association.
In a controversial move, the School Board voted Thursday to classify staff members who serve some of the highest-needs students with disabilities, as well as those in the districtâs preschool and Head Start programs, as essential.
