Last month, the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education had said districts would not be required to report positive cases in school buildings for the new academic year.
Superintendent Henderson Lewis Jr. said while the district initially feared the worst for its schools, relatively little damage was sustained and most schools are only waiting to have power restored.
"We only have our students for 180 days out of the school year in most of our schools in the state. And you know, that time matters, every day matters."
In 2019, a Vermont student with a disability that causes bone pain was forcefully subdued by a school resource officer after educators suspected, erroneously, that the 17-year-old had a vape.
Those students were left behind during the pandemic, according to a Department of Education report released this summer, that showed the COVID-19 pandemic worsened disparities in access and opportunities for students of color in public schools.
In August, more children were admitted to the hospital for Covid-19 in states with lower vaccination rates and Covid-19 hospitalizations among children were lower in states higher vaccination coverage, according to the CDC.
After being cited for a rip in her jeans on the first day of school, Sophia Trevino has led a protest seeking changes to the district’s dress code, which she says unfairly targets girls.
The report is a devastating account of how the former principal of Augusta Fells Savage Institute of Visual Arts and three other administrators fabricated courses and approved students for graduation when they had failed to legitimately pass classes.
Studies show Native American mascots have a negative impact on Native American students' self-esteem and present stereotypical images which undermine the educational experiences of all students.
"Ultimately, I feel that I have lost my way, and it began to consume me," Superintendent Purnell said, according to the Enterprise. "I have become tired. Tired of disappointing myself, my family, my friends, my colleagues."
According to Nevada County Superintendent Scott Lay, the county went from having about 200 substitute teachers before the pandemic to less than 70 today.
