To say the pandemic has caused a disruption to the current school year’s calendar would be a big understatement. Superintendent Dr. Chuck Bleyer reported at Monday’s school board meeting that there have been just 41 in-person instruction days this year, compared to 56 remote learning days, 18 blended days, and 3 mixed days…
Bleyer also commended the athletic programs in the district for working through the tough year as things begin to slowly return to a sense of normalcy. He said another indication of the return to normal is that the high school pep band will perform at tonight’s boys’ basketball game and the Singing 7 will also be on hand.
Last Friday, Bleyer said over 100 district faculty members received the COVID vaccine accounting for almost one-third of the total faculty, something else he said was a positive sign moving forward.
