Minnesota elementary schools can reopen as soon as Jan. 18 if they can meet safety protocols outlined by the state Wednesday. Here's what that might mean for your school district.
Q: Will all schools be able to have in-person instruction in January?
A: No. The revised guidelines announced Dec. 16 apply only to elementary schools and early learning programs. Those schools will be permitted to offer hybrid or full, in-person instruction starting Jan. 18, as long as they follow expanded safety measures. But the decision is still up to local districts and charter schools; a district can opt to remain in distance learning.
