Hybrid School Schedules Are Being Discussed Across the Nation

This fall, some American school districts will be testing a new type of schedule for their student body.

Since the coronavirus isn’t expected to go away anytime soon, social distancing in the classroom is still a big concern for the education system.

Seattle has declared that its students will probably go to school twice a week and continue online learning for the time being.

On the East coast, Connecticut and New Jersey have said it will be okay for students to return to school, but leaves the details up to individual districts.

New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio made a conservative statement about his plans to examine in school learning this year:

“One day there’s going to be a vaccine,” he said, “and I think that’s the day when you’re going to see things go back 100 percent — to every kid in the classroom — as normal.”

Many teachers are admitting that distance learning isn’t working out as well as they hoped, but are optimistic about improvements being made.
