On Saturday, Feb. 13, around 200 educators and child care workers received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at a drive-thru event at the county’s bus barn in Frisco.
It marked the first time that workers, other than those in health care and first responders, were vaccinated in the county. Of the 200, 132 doses were available for Summit School District employees, including teachers, coaches, custodians, bus drivers and more.
“When we started this wild ride of the pandemic, we were talking about different entrances, hand sanitizer, masks and I just couldn’t wait until the part where we were talking about vaccines,” said Drew Adkins, the district’s chief operating officer, at a school board meeting on Thursday, Feb. 11. “So, hip hip hooray, we are there.”

When the Summit School District started the year in a hybrid learning model, district officials made it clear that having school during a pandemic would require flexibility.
On Nov. 20, that flexibility was put to the test, when the district announced all schools would be participating in online learning from Nov. 30 through Dec. 18. Students won’t return to hybrid learning in the schools until after their holiday break ends on Jan. 4.
