The Department of Education has required school districts put into place a plan for the 2021-22 school year by June 23, and local districts are starting to make decisions about what the fall will look like.
Earlier this year, Gov. Chris Sununu announced all K-12 schools must offer a full-time, in-person learning as of April 19, and all local schools have been operating full-time since then, if they weren’t already, but still offered a fully-remote option.
Local school districts appear ready to carry on the five-day in-person schedule in the fall, according to current reopening plan discussions.
On Monday, the Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative School Board made two adjustments to its current framework, effective immediately, and discussed a community survey asking parents their preferences for the fall.

Bennington’s Rhubarb Festival is back with in-person live music and events this Friday and Saturday at Sawyer Park.
The town celebration of all things rhubarb started in 2013 as a fundraiser for the library, and became a springtime tradition, according to organizers.
Dinner and music starts Friday night. Bennington local David Blanchard kicks off the night at 5 p.m. with original and classic folk, bluegrass, and blues songs, and singer/songwriter Wendy Keith and Her Alleged Band play from 6 to 8 p.m. Barbecue will be available for purchase. Visitors can enter some of Saturday’s contests, and drop off entries for longest rhubarb stalk or widest rhubarb leaf, grand and small rhubarb bouquets, decorated market baskets, and rhubarb-themed artwork and photos.
After weeks without an explanation of the town’s recent staffing changes, a group of Bennington residents managed to break the ice with town officials during a Select Board meeting Tuesday night. However, Select Board members were unable to answer.
