Don’t miss our special Back to School Town Hall at 9 p.m. on YouTube.
As schools reopen — some virtually and some with a mix of online classes and in-person learning — parents, teachers, and students have questions. We’ve been reporting on the local school jurisdictions in our area and their plans for reopening.
Prince William County Schools (PWCS) students won’t be headed back to the classroom to school in fall, but they will likely return later in the school year.
During its six-hour meeting on July 15, the county’s school board unanimously approved a return to learning plan in which students participate in solely virtual learning for the first quarter, starting on September 8 and ending October 30. A goal of transitioning into a hybrid of in-person and virtual learning later in the school year remains in place, with the option for students to stay virtual.
