FRSD re-opening 2020-2021 plan–and a Survey!

Good morning FRSD Families.

I know many of you are anxious about what school will look like in the fall, and understandably have many questions.  On June 10th, the Oregon Department of Education released its “READY SCHOOLS, SAFE LEARNERS GUIDANCE FOR SCHOOL YEAR 2020-21” document.  If you are interested in reading it, it can be found by clicking here.

Since it was released, our staff has been reading and re-reading the information, as well as attending many trainings and virtual meetings to hear what others around the state are considering.  Over the next two weeks, we will continue to brainstorm ideas that comply with this guidance, leading up to a team of staff, students, and parents that will begin to meet on Tuesday, July 7th, to begin to plan what school will look like in our District.

We have developed a survey with the help of Lane ESD that will compile some data for this team to review as we begin the planning process. You can access the survey by clicking here, and we ask all of our parents to fill it out.  The survey will remain open through Friday, July 3rd.  Thank you in advance for your participation.

Gary Carpenter, Superintendent, FRSD 28J
