Winston R-6 has made available a reentry plan for students starting back to school on Aug. 25.
Superintendent Brian Robinson says weeks of planning and input from multiple individuals and agencies went into developing the plan.
“It has been an unusual five months since we stopped in-person classes because of COVID-19,” he wrote in a letter to parents. “So many changes have taken place and continue to do so. With that being said, I have never been so excited to have students and the full staff back to school.”
Robinson notes that everyone is going to need to be very flexible as school starts the year. It might take several tries and additional practice to get new procedures to work correctly or staff might find that what looks good on paper does not work like they thought it would and have to shift gears.
“Just like teachers never discover new and different ways to teach without trying new things, we will not know how the plan will work until we try it,” Robinson notes. “The plan is rather long, but it is meant to be thorough, so everyone is informed how the Winston R-6 School District plans to ‘Return to Learn’.”
The plan can be found on the school’s web page and has been shared on Facebook. It can also be found on this newspaper’s website.
