Massachusetts education leaders want teachers back in classrooms for remote learning
Teachers and staff in school districts planning remote instruction this fall are expected to return to school buildings and conduct distance learning from empty classrooms, according to guidelines released Friday by the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
The guidelines also recommend that teachers in districts providing remote learning be allowed to bring their children to school with them for child care, and that children of teachers get priority “for full-time, in-person instruction when feasible,” along with high-needs students.
State education officials also recommend that schools “continue to provide as much in-person instruction as possible to vulnerable students,” even in districts with a high average daily rate of coronavirus cases.
