As we look towards the 2021-2022 school year, the Board of Education has approved the offering of a Kindergarten (5K) through 6th grade virtual learning option for families residing in our district, should sufficient enrollment exist by June 30, 2021. The Board considered several factors in making this offering available to families, including the current lack of a COVID-19 vaccine option available for students under the age of 12.
Interested families with students entering kindergarten through 6th grade must indicate their commitment to a virtual learning option using this survey no later than June 30, 2021.
The commitment to this virtual learning option is for the first semester of the 2021-2022 school year (through January 21, 2022). Potential options for the second semester of the school year will be reviewed at a later date. Where sufficient interest in a virtual learning option does not exist, the district will consider multi-age virtual classrooms.
Families planning to engage in in-person instruction next fall do not need to take any action.
