Aitkin schools will send students back two weeks early

The Aitkin School Board decided at its regular meeting Dec. 21 that students in grades 4-12 would return to school Jan. 5.
The vote was 4-2, with Noel Bailey not at that part of the meeting. The two dissenting votes were John Chute and Cindi Hills.
Aitkin Schools grades 4-12 have been in distance learning since Nov. 16 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with grades preK-3 still at Rippleside Elementary in person.
The discussion at the Dec. 21 meeting started with Superinteindent Dan Stifter saying the district would likely be able to return earlier than the original Jan. 18 estimate.
Stifter initially pitched the idea of students in grades 4-12 returning on Jan. 11. While final details on the state of Minnesota “return to school” order set for Jan. 18 are up in the air, Stifter said schools can return sooner if they present a plan to the state.
