Education officials are hoping a staple of the last school year will be next to non-existent during the new school year that starts three weeks from today. Remote learning became the two words many students, teachers, and parents dreaded.

In addition, Bleyer said the state has ruled that simply having a fear of contracting COVID while at school is not a valid excuse to stay home.
