HARRISON PUBLIC SCHOOLS REMOTE/DISTANCE LEARNING PLAN SEPTEMBER 2020
The District’s ability to provide in-person instruction/hybrid model has been impacted by various factors. For example, under the guidelines from The Road Back Restart and Recovery Plan for Education, almost 52 percent of the students have requested distance learning. A significant number of staff and support personnel have requested accommodations. Many parents are concerned about their child either getting sick or spreading the virus when they get home. Thus, the Harrison Public Schools will proceed in the following manner:
Phase I: A Full-Time Remote/Distance Learning model will begin Friday, September 11, 2020 and continue until November 13, 2020. Principals will be contacting all parents beforehand, regarding each school’s distance learning plan and expectations.
Teachers will receive distance learning training on Wednesday, September 9 and Thursday, September 10, 2020.
The District will re-evaluate the “Remote/Distance Learning Plan” by the end of the first marking period, on or about November 13, 2020.
Phase II: When conditions warrant, the in-person/hybrid model as described in our “Reopening Plan” will be implemented.
