Chesterfield unveils plans for next school year Schools unveil learning option for fall By Brent Solomon | April 9, 2021 at 11:27 PM EDT - Updated April 9 at 11:27 PM CHESTERFIELD, Va. (WWBT) - Parents in Chesterfield have less than two months to decide whether they want to send their children back to the classroom for the upcoming school year. This comes as school leaders are preparing to start the school year sooner than usual, and the district is pushing face-to-face instruction. Chesterfield leaders admit math and reading scores are not quite where they want them to be. One way around that, they say, is getting students of all grade levels back into the classroom.
