Mass. Association of School Committees
Statement of the Massachusetts Association of School Committees Relative to Plans to Expand In-Person Instruction February 23, 2021…
This document has been developed to act as a guide for school committees as your district develops and implements a back-to-school strategy. This task will require flexibility on the school committee’s part in schedules of meetings and the time commitment required to meet the deadlines established by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
As the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) prepares final guidance for districts to use in reopening schools in September 2020, many school committee members have raised questions and sought advice from MASC. This is a time of uncertainty and extraordinary challenges for everyone associated with public schools.
