Message From the Superintendent 3/5/21

As we prepare for Spring Break, we wanted to provide clarity around our learning plans for when we return. Earlier this week, we communicated our plan to have students choosing in-person learning return to campus on March 30. After we shared our plans, the Governor released an executive order that requires any family that selected an in-person or hybrid learning option should have the opportunity to be back in classrooms following Spring Break. As a result of the new executive order, we have revised our return to school timeline and the in-person hybrid learning model will now begin on Monday, March 22, 2021. We encourage you to read Superintendent Dr. Quintin Boyce's full statement. (Click the title of this post for the link.)

Mientras nos preparamos para las vacaciones de primavera, queríamos brindar claridad sobre nuestros planes de aprendizaje para cuando regresemos. A principios de esta semana, comunicamos nuestro plan para que los estudiantes que eligen el aprendizaje en persona regresen al campus el 30 de marzo. Después de que compartimos nuestros planes, el gobernador emitió una orden ejecutiva que requiere que cualquier familia que haya seleccionado una opción de aprendizaje en persona o híbrida debe tener la oportunidad de estar de regreso en los salones de clases después de las vacaciones de primavera. Como resultado de la nueva orden ejecutiva, hemos revisado nuestro cronograma de regreso a la escuela y el modelo de aprendizaje híbrido en persona comenzará ahora el lunes 22 de marzo de 2021.
