Nearly two years after school districts first shifted to virtual learning, Lancaster ISD will once again hold classes via the screen.
“I think it was the best decision to make, because the health and safety of the children should always be top priority. So, i support the district 100%. We're all just doing the best that we can at this moment,” said Young.
But with just a few days’ notice, it's a decision Dallas ISD's teacher union president Rena Honea said could bring challenges. “Everyone is just alerted to be on their highest safeguards. Not only to consider themselves and their families, but in education, we have to consider students, parents, communities and a lot," said Honea."And for these districts that decide at the last minute to go virtual, they could cause some real issues for parents who have not been aware or have not made for someone to be with them to you know to provide that support for digital learning.
Earlier this week, Cook Children’s medical director of infectious diseases said that begins with vaccinations and masks. “If they’re able to do that, I think there's good data that kids can go back to school and be safe. That also includes things like spreading out and good ventilation, those multiple layers of trying to increase safety,” said Dr. Mary Suzanne Whitworth.In the meantime, it will use Tuesday as a transition day, working with families to make sure everyone's able to connect remotely again.
