Posted by Eric Stone | Dec 11, 2020 Craig High School (KRBD file photo) The school board for the community of Craig dramatically raised the number of COVID-19 cases it would take to trigger a move to distance learning on Wednesday. Some teachers in the rural Prince of Wales Island community say the decision is arbitrary and unnecessarily puts them at risk.
Craig’s school board got an earful at its most recent meeting. Residents told the board they weren’t happy with the district’s move to all-distance education as COVID-19 cases spiked on the island. “We need to be looking about how we get our kids back in school and how we keep our kids in school,” said local attorney Kristi Kuhnert.
