BELOIT â The Beloit School District has to âdig inâ to figure out how to better engage students who are learning from home, school board Vice President Megan Miller said.
A Beloit Daily News review of school district data shows that in some grades more than 40% of students learning at home are not engaged in their studies.
âThis is a continuous process of figuring out how to best serve kids and families throughout the pandemic. I feel confident we have good instructors and assistance, but data shows we have to ask some different questions to get different answers,â Miller said. âWe really need to dig into this.â
BELOIT â The Beloit school district board of education will be discussing a new model which would include the possibility of reopening schools during its business meeting set for 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Kolak Education Center, 1500 Fourth St.
The board also will discuss the submission of a waiver request regarding the number of instructional hours and educator evaluations required by school districts in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Interim Superintendent Dan Keyser will be proposing a new model on Tuesday whereby schools could be reopened. The full plan will be uploaded to online board documents on Tuesday, said Board of Education President Kyle Larsen.
