On Monday, June 28, State Commissioner of Education Miguel Cardona issued his “Adapt, Advance, Achieve” plan for reopening schools in the fall.
The plan includes several detailed sections including an operations plan, health practices and protocols, health monitoring, and plans on faculty and student engagement.
“These last three months have disrupted schooling in Connecticut in a way that we have not experienced in over a century,” Cardona wrote in his cover letter to the plan. “We lived through it together and we will recover together. Balancing the reopening of schools in our state will require flexibility, an awareness of the changing trends of infection, and a willingness to make disruptive decisions to promote the health and safety of our students, their families, and our staff."
