Sahuarita Unified School District leaders held a special board meeting Saturday to discuss distance and in-person learning for the upcoming school year, which starts August 10.
The district plans to keep classes entirely virtual through the Labor Day holiday, September 7, 2020. After the holiday SUSD schools plan to transition to a form of in-person learning.
Schools will be following the state's health bench marks to determine when campuses will reopen, according to SUSD.
All students on the Sahuarita Digital Pathways Academy (SDPA), will start Monday and essentially remain in the program for the remainder of the course of the year.
