There was none of the usual hugs or handshakes between students and staff as Chartiers Valley Primary Schoolers arrived back to school for the first day of in-person classes.
Instead, faculty members greeted students verbally, or with the occasional fist-bump, as they exited school buses or cars one at a time in an effort to maintain proper social distancing. Then, they were ushered through doors affixed with covid-19 safety signs and into halls they haven’t seen since mid-March.
Chartiers Valley families were given the option of a full remote learning schedule or a hybrid model that includes two days of in-person instruction and the remaining three days online. Students’ last names determine the two days of school they will attend each week.
