The Peters Township School District opened their doors for the first day of school on Monday morning with relatively few problems. School district Communications Coordinator Shelly Belcher says that the morning went quite smoothly considering the changes that students met when arriving. Students were directed by teachers to maintain social distancing while arriving at school. As students entered buildings, they were greeted with thermal imaging cameras to monitor for fevers and traffic patterns within the buildings were altered. The district is employing the Canvas learning management platform for in school and remote students. Belcher says that there were minimal issues with students adapting to the change. Lunches for elementary students were in classrooms and in the upper level buildings, cafeteria service was provided. Belcher went on to explain that remote learning students that wish to partake of school lunches may do so by ordering online and picking up the lunches at the high school three days a week. Students in the Bentworth School District also returned today to in-person learning five days a week. Washington and Trinity schools don’t resume classes until September 8th. Both of those districts will be operating under a hybrid system with students attending classes in person two consecutive days and three days of remote instruction.
