The Carson City School Board voted Tuesday to open school for in-person, on-campus instruction to seventh- and eighth-graders four days a week as of March 23.
The full transition of returning students to school to campus from the hybrid model Tuesdays through Fridays began in October with pre-kindergarteners to second-graders, then in January with third- to sixth-graders. Mondays will continue to serve as remote learning days for all students.
“Students and families currently enrolled in the full-remote model at any school will continue to have the option to remain in the full-remote model if they choose,” Superintendent Richard Stokes, superintendent for the Carson City School District, said in a statement from the district Wednesday. “Hybrid students not interested in attending four days per week may elect to transition to full-remote learning. Further adjustments to school operations may be made if additional restrictions are removed.”

ANN ARBOR, MI The elections that catapulted Albert Wheeler into the Ann Arbor mayor’s office in 1975 and led to his ouster three years later were nothing short of unusual.
They involved razor-thin margins, a controversial new voting system later repealed, and a reelection victory followed by a court battle and special redo election.
