Recently, the Savannah Chatham County Public School board of education members held a workshop to hear and discuss information presented by staff regarding reopening schools.
The thought exchange will continue this week as board members hear about other components of district operations affected by current public health recommendations.
The initial workshop demonstrated the board members’ and staff’s awareness of the need to adapt and plan for challenges that no one can fully envision given rapidly changing public health conditions.
School boards and district administrators, tasked with creating plans for reopening schools, will – in coordination with health officials – make the final determinations of when and how schools reopen.
The school board and administration will have the benefit of a small task force of diverse individuals to offer suggestions and feedback while developing the best reopening plan possible.
