 Back to School Update

Classes for students will begin Wednesday, August 26, 2020.

This is a change from the calendar that was adopted in February.  A new calendar will be made to reflect the changes and distributed throughout the community.  This change is to allow staff time for professional development and prepare for a possible change to eLearning overnight.  We will go to school on Friday, August 28, 2020 and look at alternatives for making up the delayed start time.

Currently, the plan is for school to start with face-to-face instruction.  We continue to work on and develop as many safeguards as possible for our instruction.  Our reopening committee continues to work on a detailed document to be shared with staff, students, and parents.  It is our intention to have that document ready for distribution in early August.

The board of education did adopt a three-tiered instructional system for this upcoming school year.  More details to come on the tiers as the committee navigates all the information coming and changing on a frequent basis.

We will continue to keep you posted on changes and encourage you to refer to the school website for updates.

Faith School District 46-2 is committed to supporting our students and their families as we navigate the impacts of COVID-19 on our community and schools.
