APPLETON - Appleton Area School District high school classes will be extended by 10 minutes starting May 3 through the remainder of the 2020-21 school year.
Approved unanimously at a special school board meeting on Wednesday, the change maintains the district s four-day schedule for high school students but adds nearly three more hours of face-to-face class time per week.
The updated plan also calls to expand the district s in-person targeted support for students in need in grades 7-12 on Wednesdays, when instruction will remain online for most. But district officials didn t provide more details of what that would look like at Wednesday s board meeting.

APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Appleton Area School District is now offering in-person learning. The youngest learners through 4th graders are fully in-person. Middle and high schoolers are in a blended model.
For many, like veteran crossing guard Dennis Murphy, January isn’t exactly synonymous with “back to school.”
“It’s a little slower than I thought, but I’m anxious to be back, it’s colder than I thought.”
But, it’s the first week many students in the Appleton Area School District are back in the classroom since March.
