LAS CRUCES - Gadsden Independent School District has longtime been focused on preparing high school students for future careers, but with online learning persisting for nearly a year, young student teachers have had to switch gears to adapt. Normally, students in the educational career pathway for their sophomore through senior years would be able to visit nearby schools and act as student teachers for the year. This year, students are still assigned to work with a class, but, now, they do everything remotely. GISD has remained online since March 2020, after school buildings across New Mexico were closed in order to help mitigate the spread of SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Hybrid learning began for the first time on March 8 for GISD, but student teachers will remain virtual for the time being.
