LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lakeport Unified School District Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting on Friday to discuss the COVID-19 situation with the county’s Public Health officer and look at possibly moving up the day for returning to in-person instruction.
The meeting will take place at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20, in the Marge Alakszay Center, 250 Lange St.
Members of the public also can participate in the public session of the meeting via Zoom: https://lakeportusd.zoom.us/j/85759629637.
The agenda can be found here.
On Nov. 9, the board held a special meeting in which it decided to move to the hybrid learning model, which is phase two of the Lake County Return to School Continuum Plan, in January. The hybrid stage will start in-person instruction at schools.
However, at its regular Wednesday night meeting, the board was confronted by students, parents and coaches who wanted the district to move to the hybrid stage on Nov. 30, the date Superintendent Jill Falconer told the board last week that staff would be ready to make the transition.
The board agreed to hold a special meeting on Friday, when Public Health Officer Dr. Gary Pace said he is available to give them a presentation on COVID-19 and schools.
The Friday meeting will host Pace’s presentation as well as the board’s review of the current start date for full implementation of Stage 2 hybrid learning on the Lake County Return to School Continuum Plan.
