Wausau school board holds special meeting for upcoming year

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) -

The Wausau School Board held a special meeting Monday night, to discuss what the 2020-2021 school year will look like with the COVID-19 pandemic. The board discussed 13 facets of the school operation, to see what would be the safest and most effective way to educate kids in the Wausau School District.

Prior to the meeting, the board sent out a survey to parents in the community asking them what their preference would be in terms of face-to-face or virtual learning. Of the 2,275 results they received, over 65% said that in-person teaching would work best, with only 18% of families saying that would not work for them.
