WICHITA, Kan. — The largest school district in Kansas plans to transition more students to in-person classes next week.
Wichita Public Schools announced that starting Monday seniors and sixth-grade students will attend class on-site every day except Wednesdays, which will remain remote. Freshmen will transition on March 8. The Wichita Eagle reports the change affects only students whose parents opted for on-site learning. Parents who chose the remote learning model will continue to keep their children at home.
School officials previously said about 40% of students enrolled in only remote classes.
