The learning centers are set to reopen on Feb. 24. It’s a way for students to learn remotely, at a school facility, with adult supervision.
As more COVID-19 vaccines are administered and the community spread stays below 5 percent the district wants to step back into the face-to-face model which will hopefully phase back in starting in March.
Vitti said summer school options will be extended, not mandatory, but extended to accommodate more students who have suffered learning loss over the past year.
If community spread remains low then actual face-to-face learning will resume in March.
