OCEANSIDE, Calif. (KGTV) â Some students in Oceanside will be allowed to return to campuses for in-person learning starting in March.
On Tuesday evening, the Oceanside Unified School Districtâs school board voted in favor of allowing kindergarten-5th grade students to get back into classrooms for in-person instruction.
Special education students will be allowed back starting March 8; the rest of the elementary school students are allowed to return on March 15.
The decision was made hours after a group of parents held a protest that called for a return to in-person learning. The parents said they felt it was safe for all students to return to schools.
Gov. Lee calls for SCS schools to reopen in two weeks By Joyce Peterson | January 28, 2021 at 9:52 PM CST - Updated February 4 at 8:19 AM
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - The CDC announced this week, and Dr. Anthony Fauci agreed with the recommendation, that it is safe for schools to open back up in the U.S. if there are precautions in place.
It requires a plan, along with PPE, and government support.
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee on Thursday, January 28, called for SCS schools to reopen in two weeks.
SCS leaders said: show us the support and get us vaccinated.
“I know of 3 principals, as we speak, who are in the hospital on respirators,” said Keith Williams, head of the local teacher’s union, “and those are educators who work in schools where there are no children right now. What do you think would happen if we opened up schools and brought 100,000 children back?”
