Hybrid and remote learning model selections sent out to Boston families, Cassellius provides reopening update

Boston Herald

Boston families grappling with school reopening will now begin the process of choosing which learning model they want for their children, while facilities are being cleaned and improvements to remote learning are still being prepared, according to a Wednesday update from Superintendent Brenda Cassellius and her team. "We are starting to ask families to identify the learning model they would prefer for their children," said Monica Roberts, Boston Public Schools chief of student, family and community advancement. Roberts said the selection form went out Wednesday night and had gotten about 1,800 responses after just one hour. She said robocalls, individualized phone calls and other community messaging will work to target families and gather responses. If families don't respond with their selection for either a remote or hybrid model, students will be scheduled into a hybrid model with busing, if applicable, said Roberts.
