Dear Parents, Guardians, and Community Members- With the rise in COVID-19 in our state and community, several school districts have moved to virtual learning. However, at this time, Benton Public Schools does not plan to move to virtual instruction. While our numbers of positive cases for the district and the state are on the rise, most of our positive cases have resulted from community spread during the holidays. Currently, we are able to provide supervision that allows us to provide for the academic needs and the safety of our students at the current positive and quarantine rates. A decision to move to remote learning will only be made IF absences among our teachers and staff compromise the education and/or safety and supervision of students. We are closely tracking the situation as each campus has different staffing needs. If there is a need for closure, we will give our school community as much notice as possible. Our goal is to keep our schools open, and students are learning in person as long as we can safely do so. We appreciate your patience as we work to make the best decisions for our students and staff. Con el aumento de COVID-19 en nuestro estado y comunidad, varios distritos escolares han optado por el aprendizaje virtual. Sin embargo, en este momento, las Escuelas Públicas de Benton no planean pasar a la instrucción virtual. Si bien nuestro número de casos positivos para el distrito y el estado está aumentando, la mayoría de nuestros casos positivos han sido el resultado de la propagación de la comunidad durante las vacaciones. Actualmente, podemos proporcionar supervisión que nos permite satisfacer las necesidades académicas y la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes con las tasas positivas y de cuarentena actuales. La decisión de pasar al aprendizaje virtual solo se tomará si las ausencias de nuestros maestros y personal comprometen la educación y/o la seguridad y la supervisión de los estudiantes. Estamos siguiendo de cerca la situación ya que cada campus tiene diferentes necesidades de personal. Si hay una necesidad de cierre, avisaremos a nuestra comunidad escolar con la mayor antelación posible. Nuestro objetivo es mantener nuestras escuelas abiertas y los estudiantes estarán aprendiendo en persona siempre que podamos hacerlo de manera segura. Agradecemos su paciencia mientras trabajamos para tomar las mejores decisiones para nuestros estudiantes y personal.
