Background:
|
In May, June, and July 2020, the Administration shared preliminary and updated plans associated with the reopening of school for the 2020-2021 school year with the Milwaukee Board of School Directors. Due to the fluid nature and the need for flexibility during the pandemic, the plans continue to be further refined to best support the health and safety of our community. Early on in the process, the Administration convened work groups to address different areas of consideration for school reopening: health and safety, academics, school operations, communications, professional development, and classroom and schoolwide supports. The work groups include teachers, school leaders, other staff, MTEA representatives, students, parents, and community members. The groups continue to meet to plan for school reopening. The Administration continues to take into account the feedback from the work groups, parents, students, and staff while reviewing and considering guidance from various entities including the Council of the Great City Schools; other school districts; and, local and state guidance. The attached Roadmap to Readiness Update provides information for moving into Phase 2. |
