LCUSD #9 school community, As Covid numbers are moving in the right direction and vaccinations are in full go, we are currently looking at adding student in person time on Wednesdays. We know that there are several obstacles and challenges to balance in person instruction and continue to provide good remote instruction for our students. We are looking at resources to help us make this transition. Our 5 day student attendance plan will most likely have a similar daily schedule. We feel that now with many vaccinated and Covid numbers moving in a better direction that we could now maximize instruction time. We are still working out a few details and will take time to finalize decisions, while giving our school community time to plan. Please remain flexible as we look at options. We will communicate changes very soon. Thank you for your support.
