In reply to the discussion: DeVos demands 'fully operational' schools in the fall: 'Not a matter of if' [View all]oregonjen
(3,637 posts)Today, I convened the first meeting of the Healthy Schools Reopening Council. With the current rise in COVID-19 cases across Oregon, it is clear that we have our work cut out for us in figuring out how students, educators, and staff can return to classrooms safely this fall.
Whether students can return to classrooms or not at the start of the school year is up to each and every one of us. If we continue to see cases rise, districts across the state will be forced to resort to extended periods of remote instruction throughout the school year.
I dont want to see that happen, but it is the reality we face. July can be a turning point. Oregonians must continue to wear face coverings and practice physical distancing or we could quickly find that a safe return to the classroom is beyond our reach.
