Background:
|
On March 12, 2020, Governor Tony Evers signed Executive Order #72, declaring a public health emergency for Wisconsin in response to the Covid-19 Coronavirus.
On March 13, 2020 Governor Evers announced the closure of all Wisconsin schools in response to the COVID-19 pandemic situation.
On March 23, 2020, Governor Evers issued statewide and local "safer at home" orders, which indicated that individuals are allowed to go out in public only for essential needs.
On April 16, 2020, Governor Tony Evers issued Emergency Order #28 – Safer at Home Order, which will remain in effect until May 26, 2020. Also by way of this order, the Governor has ordered the closure of all public and private K-12 schools for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year.
Based on the executive and emergency orders issued by Governor Evers resulting in the closure of schools, the Administration is requesting that the Board approve the MPS 2019-2020 Grading, Promotion, and Graduation Plan as attached. The proposed plan is in alignment with guidance provided by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction relative to local authority around graduation requirements, grading, and class promotion in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
