North Shore School District 112 is preparing to return students and staff to school on September 3 in a Hybrid learning model. This model calls for significant risk mitigation with respect to the COVID-19 Global Pandemic. Students and staff have not been on site since March 12 - it's time for schooling to restart - in as safe a manner as possible. With enhanced air quality investments, cleaning and sanitizing investments, PPE investments, curricular material investments, and much, much, more, the Board and administration remain committed to public safety as they bring back a version of in-person schooling with an enhanced set of distance or "e" learning as well. This is a back to school update from the superintendent of schools. Learn more at https://www.nssd112.org/domain/1243
