Camas school board pauses reopenings, gives staff time to transition

On Monday, Feb. 22, just one week before Camas elementary students were scheduled to return to full classrooms, four days a week, and high-schoolers would have entered a hybrid schedule with twice-weekly in-person classes, the Camas School Board agreed to pause the district’s school reopening rollout to give teachers, staff and families more time to adjust to the swift transitions.

Elementary students will now transition from hybrid to four full days of in-person learning on March 22 instead of March 1. High school students will begin a hybrid model, with two days of in-person learning each week, on March 8 instead of March 1.
