Hybrid Learning
The goal of this model is to have flexibility in reducing class size as a mitigation effort when local COVID data indicates increased precautions are necessary. In a hybrid model, 50% of students attend school on-site every other day and participate in remote continuous learning on the other days. Each primary household will be assigned a Red Group or a Blue Group which corresponds with the day they would attend school on-site. School will dismiss at 2:00 pm on M/T/Th/F. Wednesdays will remain a 1:30 pm dismissal.
3 & 4 year old Preschool Hybrid Schedule
Because our 3 and 4 year old preschool classes are small (10 and 12 students), we will not run a hybrid schedule in that environment. Preschool will either remain full on-site or, if either Ballard West or the entire district close due to COVID, move into required continuous learning.
