BIRMINGHAM The Birmingham Public Schools Board of Education voted 4-3 to approve a timeline to return students to a hybrid in-person learning format beginning Jan. 11.
According to a presentation made to the board during its regularly scheduled meeting Dec. 15, the plan will be contingent on no further restrictions instituted by the state’s Department of Health and Human Services, and no drastic spikes in COVID-19 cases noted ahead of the return date. Data from the Oakland County Health Division will be reviewed on Wednesday, Jan. 6, to confirm those stipulations.
