REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) The Redmond School District on Monday outlined its current COVID-19-related plans for both summer school and the coming school year, as latest state guidance leaves such decisions up to local school districts.
In late June, the Oregon Department of Education issued its draft Ready Schools, Safe Learners guidance for the 2021-22 school year.
The new guidance allows local control over nearly all practices related to containing and preventing COVID-19 in our schools. The Oregon Health Authority and Oregon Department of Education encourage school districts to balance the reopening of the state with a plan to keep students and staff safe.
