WASHINGTON, Pa – The Trinity Area School District has officially approved their return-to-school plan for the 2020-2021 school year. At Thursday’s planning meeting, the board approved their health and safety plan – which includes two options: a Hybrid Model and Trinity K-12 Cyber. Students who choose the Hybrid Model will be broken into two groups: A or B. They will attend school two consecutive days and then three days of remote, digital, and live learning. The K-12 Cyber option is complete online learning. According to Superintendent, Dr. Michael Lucas, about 15% of Trinity students have chosen the full cyber option. He says the deadline has passed, but parents may still enroll their children up until the start of school. He also said that, if necessary, Trinity will be prepared to begin the school year completely online if the hybrid model is not recommended by the state health and education departments at the current time. In addition, Lucas said he expects more specific guidance regarding fall sports and that, “it would be extremely disappointing if we do not have sports.” Trinity will hold “parent town hall meetings” and be releasing “what to expect videos” for students and families soon.
