After a pause in hybrid learning, students and teachers in the Appoquinimink School District returned to school on Monday at the urging of the governor.
The return to class in what the district is calling hybrid 2.0 includes the addition of webcams in all classrooms to improve the learning experience.
The cameras allow instructors to teach students in person and at home simultaneously and double the amount of live instruction for students. Previously teachers would have separate in-person and virtual lessons.
Now students are coming into the buildings two full days a week, with one asynchronous learning day and two virtual learning days.

Milton Downing, an art teacher at Alfred G. Waters Middle School, was named 2021 Art Educator of the Year by the Delaware Art Education Association.
The 35-year art teacher said his teaching philosophy is that it is important to have a rapport with his students. All through school, I had teachers who supported me and treated me with respect and care, and those are attributes I want to pass on to my students, Downing said. I believe if your students know you respect their position and their voice, then they will work more diligently for you.
