St. Louis Public School is offering a full in person school and two virtual options whch can be found on their website at:
1) in-class room instruction at a bricks and mortar school site;
2) virtual instruction via Microsoft Teams/Zoom type video instruction utilizing District teachers and curriculum, and;
3) self-contained, self-driven virtual instruction via the District’s third-party website based online instruction service, Edmentum.

The in-person learning option for grades K-12 has three phases:
Phase 1: Students attending school five days a week;
Phase 2: A blended model designed for students to attend in-person learning two days a week and receive virtual instruction one day a week, thereby reducing the number of students in school by approximately half each day; and
Phase 3: 100% virtual learning for all students.
So far, the school board voted on phase two and will be the plan unless things change.
