Ottumwa has submitted their Return to Learn Plan, including the district's Continuous Learning Plan. Every school district in the State of Iowa was required to develop a plan that included three instructional models, continuous learning (virtual), hybrid, and face-to-face. The plan was due to the Iowa Department of Education by July 1. This plan provides Ottumwa Schools with guidance on returning to school during the 2020-21 school year and how we will respond to the coronavirus if needed. The plan is grouped around the following areas: Required Continuous Learning, Leadership and Infrastructure, Health and Safety, Iowa Academic Standards (Equity), Social-Emotional-Behavioral Health (Equity), Special Education and Data.
The plan is located on the Coronavirus Update Center under important links: https://www.ottumwaschools.com/updates.
