Levittown Schools Begin A New Year Of Learning

Press release from Levittown Public Schools:

September 14, 2020

After being away from school for months due to the pandemic and summer break,
students from the Levittown Public Schools received a warm welcome back on Sept. 8.
Although school will look different this year, students were still excited to return to their
buildings to see their peers, meet their new teachers and fall into their new routines.

With smiles behind their masks, students and staff entered their respective schools
and had their temperatures checked. This is one of the many safety precautions that the
district is taking this school year to ensure the health and safety of everyone who enters
the buildings. Among other safety measures, students and staff will follow guidelines such a
proper social distancing, along with hand-washing and hand sanitizing.

This year, Levittown students had the option of following a fully remote
instructional model or return to school in some capacity. Primary students could return to
in-person learning five days a week, while secondary students had the option of selecting a
hybrid model, following a schedule that alternates between virtual and in-person
instructional days.

“We are thrilled to welcome our students back and reconnect with them both in-
person and virtually,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tonie McDonald. “Although school
may look different this year, the Levittown Public Schools will continue to provide students
with a safe learning environment and opportunities that will lead to Success for Every
Student.”
