BHS/BTC In-Person Learning: Short & Long Term Thinking Survey Due On Thursday

From the Burlington School District:

October 27, 2020

Please take the Burlington High School/Burlington Technical Center Survey by Thursday, October 29.

This past Tuesday, October 20th, we held an important board meeting regarding the future of in-person learning for high school students and the BHS/BTC campus. Several people participated in public comment and the board engaged in a robust conversation regarding the options before us:

1. Return to BHS now while remediation occurs and the ReEnvisioning Project continues as planned.
2. Move to an alternate location for 2-3 years while remediation and the ReEnvisioning occur at the BHS site and move back into BHS after the construction is complete.
3. Move to an alternate location for 2-3 years while building a new high school and tech center at our current site or in a new location.

As we move forward, we are hoping to hear from as many members of our community as possible regarding the future of BHS. All parents, students, staff, and community members are encouraged to please complete the BHS/BTC survey and have your voice heard. The survey asks our community about the options above, and for current BHS students, parents, and staff, also asks for input on short-term in-person learning activities.
