Springfield schools cancel in-person classes for next week, go to virtual learning


(From Springfield Public Schools)

After closing the district this week due to the pandemic’s negative impact on staffing, we have continued to monitor conditions in our schools and the community. 

While it was our hope that we could return to in-person classes next week, that will not be possible. There are still a rising number of COVID cases within SPS, with 20 percent of our workforce reporting a necessary absence. As a result, SPS will not have the staffing required to provide in-person learning next week.







 
While some teachers and support staff are not yet able to return to the classroom due to a COVID illness or exposure, some are able to provide virtual instruction from home. Therefore, SPS will utilize Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI) and provide virtual learning next week as follows:
 
· Students will not be in school Monday, Jan. 24. All in-person and live virtual instruction are canceled for students on Monday. This day will be used as a training day for SPS teachers to prepare delivery of virtual instruction to all students beginning on Tuesday, Jan. 25.
 
· Beginning Tuesday, Jan 25, all preK-12 students will participate in virtual learning from home with instruction guided by SPS teachers. Virtual learning will continue through Friday, Jan. 28.
