Topping our news today…

The Bradley County School Board met on Thursday where three possible scenarios for returning to school were presented. One option being considered is in-person attendance, where students would return to school as normal with added health and safety protocols, precautions, and training. Another option would be a hybrid environment, determined by an increase in active cases as determined by the Health Department, CDC, and TDOE. This would involve a mix of in-person and remote learning as necessary. The third option would be full remote learning, determined by a major outbreak forcing a shutdown of schools. This would be a transition back to a fully remote learning experience with a remote feeding plan, as well as no on-campus activities. This plan was approved with the caveat that the plan may change as necessary.
