High School Reopening Plan Updated 8/5/2020

Reopening Plan - UPDATE (8/5/2020)

2020-21 School Year

Dear Parents and Students,

On Friday, July 31, 2020, the Public Health Department of Dayton & Montgomery County released updated recommendations to all school districts located in Montgomery County. This guidance strongly encouraged school districts in Montgomery County to start the year with virtual learning until the increase in COVID-19 cases declines. The full guidance can be found at: https://www.phdmc.org/program-documents/healthy-lifestyles/gumc/emergency/covid-19/guidance/1940-r ecommendations-on-montgomery-county-k-12-schools-reopening/file

With this recommendation in mind, MVCTC will maintain the two original opening days on August 13 and 14 and then will move to online instruction beginning Monday, August 17 through Friday, September 4. On Tuesday, September 8, our goal is to implement the reopening plan that had been previously shared with you. For your reference, the full MVCTC reopening plan and frequently asked questions can be found at http://www.mvctc.com/reopening.

The first day for students will NOT change from what was shared in the original reopening plan. I have included this information below for your convenience.

On Thursday, August 13, 2020, ONLY junior students will report to MVCTC. No seniors will be in attendance on August 13.

On Friday, August 14, 2020, ONLY senior students will report to MVCTC. No junior students will be in attendance on August 14.

Beginning on Monday, August 17 through Friday, September 4, MVCTC will be offering virtual instruction for both academic and career-technical programs. Students will receive additional information on August 13 or 14 regarding the online learning experience.

MVCTC will reevaluate the COVID-19 situation during this three week period and make an announcement in regards to how the district will operate beginning on Tuesday, September 8. It is our hope that we will be able to return to the schedule below, that was previously shared in our original reopening plan. Original Schedule: Beginning on Tuesday, September 8, juniors and seniors will be assigned two days a week where they will meet on MVCTC’s campus and spend both days in their career-technical lab.

Seniors will attend Monday and Tuesday.

Juniors will attend Thursday and Friday.

For both juniors and seniors, Wednesday will be dedicated to online learning assignments for academic and elective courses. Please refer to the chart below for a visual explanation of the district’s reopening plan. 

This schedule will allow MVCTC to offer in-person career-technical coursework and ensure that students still complete academic requirements required for graduation.

In closing, all other elements of MVCTC’s original reopening plan will stay in place. We apologize for any inconveniences this change may cause you and hope you understand that it has been made to help us protect your student and the MVCTC staff.

Sincerely,

Nick Weldy, Ph.D.
Superintendent
Miami Valley Career Technology Center
