Edmonds School District planning to offer full-time in-person learning option this fall Posted: May 12, 2021 66
The Edmonds School District is planning to return students to full-time in-person learning at the start of the 2021-22 school year, according to district leaders.
At the Edmonds School Board of Directors’ May 11 business meeting, Superintendent Gustavo Balderas said the district intends to offer students the option to return to in-person leaning five days a week or stay 100% remote.
“Our goal is to have as many of our kids as possible to come back to our campuses,” he said.
According to Balderas, staff are still working out the details for remote learning, but added that online learning will look different for elementary, middle and high school grade levels. The logistics of returning students to school buildings full-time will be based on guidance from the Washington State Department of Health.

The Edmonds School District said Monday that it intends to offer in-person learning to students in grades 3-12 by mid-April, joining the grade K-2 students who are returning March 22.
Gov. Jay Inslee announced last Friday he would issue an emergency proclamation this week that all schools in the state must offer an option for in-person learning for K-12 students by April 19. In a
letter to families Friday, Balderas said the district will “do everything we can to meet the mandate.” Another letter was sent to families Monday, confirming that all students would be offered an in-person option.

In a letter to families Thursday, Edmonds School District Superintendent Dr. Gustavo Balderas addressed Wednesday’s day of unrest at the U.S. Capitol, stressing the role of education in a strong democracy:
Dear Edmonds School District families,
We have encountered so many unprecedented challenges over the past year, and now we add yet another. With that said, I want to share my thoughts on the violent actions that took place in the U.S. Capitol yesterday.
It is an extremely concerning time when our own government and democratic process is halted and our elected representatives are evacuated for their safety.
