Prince William schools consider reopening plans, delayed start date

Prince William County Schools students may be staying home longer, and not just for summer vacation.

On June 7 and 8, the Prince William County School board held two meetings where they discussed school reopening plans for the 2020-21 school year and received input from the community. During the meeting, Prince William County Schools Superintendent Steven L. Walts proposed four reopening plans for the upcoming school years, delayed school start days, and the delay of the first day of school to September 8.

These proposals were made with the input of the school division's Return to New Learning Task Force, which consisted of "90 representative leaders, teachers, and staff member participants" who "spent a combined total of hundreds of hours working together over the last five weeks to look at reopening from a multitude of lenses," according to a presentation by Walts.
