Officials with the AHSTW School District report the absenteeism due to COVID-19, as well as the expiration of a significant number of quarantines, “Will return absentee percentages in the Primary and Intermediate to a rate that allows” the District to return to full-time face-to-face instruction for grades PK-8, on Monday, Oct. 5th.

It was noted however, that “Due to a continued increase in positive cases, grades 9-12 will return via [the] hybrid model for the week of Monday, October 5th – Friday, October 9th, rather than full-time face-to-face as the other students.” School officials said affected families will receive separate communication from High School Principal Michael Embrock, to let them know whether their students are assigned to attend on “A” days or “B” days as well as more detailed schedule information.

According to the District Administrative Team, “All previously communicated quarantine dates remain in effect, so please note that your child may still have a different return date that what [was] described,” and that “They will continue to attend remotely until their quarantine expires and as long as they are healthy enough to do so.”
