Summary:
|
Whereas, on April 14, 2020, the State and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey enacted P.L. 2020, Chapter 27, providing for continuity of instruction in the event of a public-health related district closure so that local educational agencies can utilize virtual or remote instruction to satisfy the 180-day requirement pursuant to N.J.S.A. 18A:7F-9;
Whereas, the guidance issued by the State of New Jersey Department of Education provides that a local educational agency must annually submit its proposed program for virtual or remote instruction (plan) to the Commissioner of Education to be implemented during a district closure lasting more than three consecutive school days due to a declared state of emergency, declared public health emergency, or a directive by the appropriate health agency or officer to institute a public health-related closure;
Whereas, in accordance with such guidance and in collaboration with the NBOE Task Force for the Reopening of Schools, the administration has prepared the Guidance for Remote Instruction Plan, an addendum to the Safe Return Plan 2021-2022, and the Board of Education finds that the Guidance for Remote Instruction Plan fits the district’s needs;
