Kane Area School District, spreading over 250 square miles in McKean and Elk Counties, has been holding in-person classes during the 2020-2021 school year, with the exception of ten and a half days when the district went online due to an uptick in COVID-19 cases and an additional eight days where high school students were remote.
The pandemic has made remote learning a reality. But despite logistical challenges and health risks, schools have endeavored to keep classrooms open.
Kane Area School District Superintendent Brock Benson said his community saw that as a common goal. He said students, staff and parents wanted in-person learning because the alternatives are just not the same.

In this video posted on Facebook on Dec. 7, 2020, Warren County Superintendent Amy Stewart explains the district s decision to move to virtual learning beginning Dec. 9, 2020.
While many school districts in Pennsylvania are moving to remote learning as COVID-19 cases rise, some central Pennsylvania districts are keeping classes in person, at least for now.
“We’re at a point with the consequences of COVID and Thanksgiving that we don’t have enough employees to be able to be offering in-person instruction across the district, said Warren County School District Superintendent Amy Stewart, announcing her district’s move to virtual learning. It will continue at least through the end of January.
