MMSD announces plans to resume in-person instruction

From MMSD:

We are happy to inform you of our decision to begin a phased return to in-person instruction, starting with Kindergarten students, March 9th.Additional grade levels will be transitioned back to in-person on a weekly basis, while virtual learning will remain an option for all students who wish to continue learning from home. Please note, virtual asynchronous days, previously held on Wednesdays, will move toMondays for all K-12students (whether receiving instruction virtually or in-person) beginningMarch 8th.

The current schedule for returning grade levels to in-person instruction includes:

  • Kindergarten (March 9th)
  • Grades 1-2 (March 16th)
  • 4K (March 23rd)

As we continue to monitor COVID-19 metrics and receive guidance from public health experts, we will later determine when other grade levels and co-curricular activities can transition safely to in-person.

On January 8, 2021, we announced the possibility of implementing a phased return to in-person learning if COVID-19 conditions improved. As we have continued to monitor our current COVID-19 metrics, from Public Health Madison & Dane County and theCenters for Disease Control & Prevention, we are moving forward with a phased-in approach, starting with our youngest learners.  

Next week, you will receive a request to indicate your intentions on whether your student(s) will be returning to in-person instruction or remain learning in an all-virtual model.It is important for you to return this survey, as the information it provides will help us better prepare and plan for our phased return to in-person instruction. 

We understand families will have many questions, and encourage you to reach out to your school’s principal. Detailed information will be sent next week on a variety of topics specific to your learner(s).
