COVID-19 Information from PCPS for 12-21-2020

Mike Seals - December 21, 2020 11:20 pm

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM PONCA CITY PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM

The Board of Education approved the recommendation that PCPS students return to In-person Instruction on Tuesday, January 5, 2021.   If conditions adversely change between now and January 5, 2021, the Board could reconvene, through a Special Board Meeting, to transition back to Distance Learning. Superintendent Arrott will continue to confer regularly with local and state health department officials throughout the break.

Upon returning to school, if we do not have enough staff to operate a site effectively and safely or if we reach significant levels of students or staff affected at a particular site, administration will make the decision to transition the site or sites affected to Distance Learning for a period of two weeks.

A confirmation of the decision for a January 5, 2021, start date will be made available to PCPS families no later than Saturday, January 2. Please have alternate accommodations available for your children, but currently we anticipate returning on January 5.
