O-P-S Has A Plan For The Second Semester

Omaha Public Schools administrators release second-semester plans to return students to classrooms in phases.

After the winter vacation, students will begin fully remote and then transition into the, now familiar, "Family 3/2" model.

Tuesday, Jan. 5th, 2021: All students begin with remote instruction following the normal bell schedule. JP Lord School returns in-person five days a week;

Monday, Jan. 11th, 2021: K-12 ACP, Transition, Elementary BSP, Early Childhood Special Education, Homebased/Homebound, and Hearing Impaired classrooms return in-person five days a week.

Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2021: All students return in-person following the "Family 3/2 Model" attendance calendar. Gateway to College, OPS/UNO Middle College Program, Parrish, Student Success Program and the Zoo Academy return in person five days a week.

In addition, students can also remain in the remote-learning option for the entire second semester if they wish.

The news release says, “We know students learn best in-person. We are also working closely with public health leaders and medical experts for the health, safety and well-being of everyone in our school communities. This phased return in-person at the start of second semester will limit traffic on-site and allow students and families to return to their routine following an extended winter break.”
