Joliet Public Schools District 86 Seeks Input
District 86 Survey Sent to Parents/Guardians and Staff to Gain Input during Planning Process for Second Trimester
Joliet Public Schools District 86 is seeking parent and employee input as the District approaches the middle of the first trimester. A survey was sent out to all families and staff on Friday
(October 2, 2020).
The survey results, combined with COVID-19 data and guidelines from the Illinois School Board of Education (ISBE), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), as well as guidance from the Will County Regional Office of Education and the Will County Health Department, will assist District 86 officials in the decision making process of plans for the second trimester that begins in mid-November.
The District originally unveiled its Hybrid and Blended Remote Learning Plan earlier in the summer. During remote learning, students and teachers meet virtually each school day. Hybrid learning occurs when students attend school one or two days in person and remote the remaining days.
