(Avoca) The AHSTW School District will temporarily move to virtual learning next week.
The School Board held an emergency school board meeting on Saturday. The District announced on Friday that due to the current health status of the district, the school will be closed on Monday so the school district and families have time to prepare. The School Board announced Saturday that due to the absentee percentages from the number of positive cases and primary exposures they will move to their continuous learning model and classes will be held virtually Tuesday through Friday and all activities have been canceled; including Homecoming events. Board President Bernadette Hatch said they will find a way to make Homecoming happen in some way at a different time.
The Board approved giving Superintendent Darin Jones the authorization to submit an application to the Iowa Department of Education for the authority to extend the Continuous Learning if needed.
