GUIDING PRIORITIES
The following priorities will guide our decision-making on anticipated major issues, grounded in the WPS strategic plan. We will prioritize…
• …decisions in the best interest of the safety and well-being of WPS staff, families and students.
• …enhancement of a rigorous virtual learning system for all students that enables a seamless transition from traditional to online learning, as well as the skill development of teachers, students and families to support effective engagement upon return.
• …decisions and expenditures that transform our system for long-term benefit
• …resources that help our most vulnerable and at-risk student populations.
• …a focused set of metrics that help us to evaluate the success of our return plan, but will not create a broad new set of accountability metrics
www.usd259.org/WPSreturn
OUR PROCESS
• Pandemic leadership team creates the framework, assures cohesive and coordinated planning
• Academic and operational task force further engages staff in detailed work to create the Future Ready Return to School Plan for 20-21
• Planning teams involve representation from unions (UTW and SEIU), broad array of employees
• Stakeholder surveys (parent and staff) will inform and guide our work

THREE PLANNING SCENARIOS
Onsite(open campus)
• Majority of staff and students return to school
• Guidelines/ requirements to focus on health/safety
Blended(hybrid)
• Combination of face-to-face and online
• Required if pivot point is necessary due to public health concerns
• Planning focus on the alternating days model, which was supported by 51% of parent respondents and 60% of staff respondents
Online(extended remote)
• Limited in-person, instruction occurs via technology
• All buildings limited access to students/ community
www.usd259.org/WPSreturn
ADDITIONAL OPTION FOR FAMILIES WHO DESIRE ONLINE ONLY
• Education Imagine Academy
– Entirely online, is its own “base school”
– Robust online course offerings, and unique electives
– Technology provided to students
– Predominately online interaction, with limited in-person requirements at designated times of the year
