UPDATE: The Marion Unit #2 School Board has voted to allow students to attend in-person learning five days a week.
Currently, Marion s K-12 students are only attending school in-person Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. All students have been full remote on Friday.
Starting the week of March 22, students will begin attending in-person learning on Fridays.
The decision was approved with a vote of 4-2. One board member was not present for the meeting.
A couple challenges facing the district if they were to decide to go to a full school day is how to feed students at lunch time as state COVID-19 protocols limit the number of people in one room to 50. Also, remote learning remains an option for students, and teachers must allow extra time to plan and accommodate those kids.

My husband and I toured New England in 2017, visiting six states in seven days. One of the places we were anxious to visit was the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass.
For those of you too young to remember, Norman Rockwell was a prolific painter of Americana. He was born in New York in 1897 and died in 1978 in Stockbridge after producing over 4,000 paintings during his lifetime. His paintings graced the cover of the Saturday Evening Post for 47 years.
He painted mostly characters in snippets of time, often in a humorous way. You and I would see a scene in real life and not think anything about it, but he had a way of taking a mental picture of that one scene and putting in on canvas. A couple examples that stand out in my mind are the ones with the mom and kids dressed up, with Bible under their arms, marching single-file off to church, while dad slumps down, still in his pajamas, in the easy chair reading the newspap
