Palm Beach County's Schools Superintendent is recommending changes to how students should return to campus.
Dr. Donald Fennoy made the changes based on feedback from the state Department of Education and the surveys filled out by parents.
Fennoy says plans to start the year with distance-learning remain intact, but he wants to cancel the phased-in approach to kids returning to campus that he proposed earlier.
Instead of transition students, or those students in kindergarten, and first, sixth, and ninth grade returning to classrooms first, the superintendent is now recommending in-person instruction resume when county health conditions allow it.
The decision will also be up to parents.
The recommendation will be discussed at a school board meeting on Wednesday.
The new school year begins August 31st.
