The Bartholomew Consolidated School Corp. has posted a hybrid learning schedule for its secondary schools on its website.
The school corporation announced Tuesday that it plans to begin the new semester on Jan. 5 with in-person learning five days a week for elementary schools and hybrid learning for secondary schools. Remote learning options have also been offered for students at both levels.
The hybrid learning model can be viewed at bcscschools.org. It splits students into two groups by last name. Secondary students with surnames A-K will attend in person on Monday and Tuesday and do eLearning Wednesday through Friday. Secondary students L-Z will do eLearning Monday through Wednesday and attend in person Thursday and Friday.
In regards to block scheduling for high school students, Monday and Thursday are A days, and Tuesday and Friday are B days.
The hybrid model, as approved in October, uses the state’s color categories for different levels of community spread to recommend different actions for BCSC. It suggests utilizing hybrid learning for secondary schools if there is moderate to high community spread (orange) and all schools if there is high community spread (red).
On Indiana’s county metrics map, Bartholomew County is currently designated as an orange county with a score of 2.5.
