Columbus Schools To Reopen February 1st Before Staff Is Vaccinated For COVID-19

0:39
High schoolers in tech programs at the Downtown High School and Ft. Hayes Career Center, Pre-K through 3rd graders, and select students with complex needs will return to a schedule of two days in class and three days online. The following week, 4th and 5th graders will return to hybrid learning. Superintendent Talisa Dixon says she understands some parents are concerned about children returning to classrooms before all adults are vaccinated, and the all-online self-directed Digital Academy remains an option. She says a hybrid model, where some students return to school for two days, and some remain online all week, is not feasible this year:

CCS Moves Ahead With Reopening And Vaccinations

Columbus City Schools are proceeding with plans to reopen under a blended learning model for some students February 1st -- before staff is vaccinated.
Columbus Public Health will administer the vaccine by appointment at the State Fairgrounds. Department director Doctor Mysheika Roberts says the pace of vaccinations in this phase will depend on how quickly doses are delivered from the state:
"In Phase 1B it's adults working in K-12 schools who could be around students. That would include your bus drivers. That would include your food service workers. We will have a gradual roll out, based on vaccine supply. So we will be asking districts in our jurisdiction to prioritize staff. The first week, if I have 2,000 doses, which 2,000 staff - based on who's going back into the classroom sooner - which 2,000 staff should we focus on? And then the next week as we get more doses, what's the next 2,000 should we focus on?"

Some CCS Students To Return To Classroom February 1

Superintendent Talisa Dixon says the district has worked closely with Columbus Public Health.
"They've stated over and over that it's safe for our students to come back. We're bringing our younger students back, and there's a lot of reasearch that supports our younger students returning. However, if we see that we need to pivot and not move forward, we defintely would do so."
The blended learning program will mean two days in the classroom, and three days online instruction at home. Vocational students at the Columbus Downtown High School and Ft. Hayes Career Center were on campus under the blended model last fall and will return February 1. Students pre-K through 3rd grade will also return, as well as all students with complex needs. Dixon says these are the students who miss face-to-face instruction the most.
