Prepare Elementary Schedules for Whatever Lies Ahead

How to quickly and easily explore social distancing schedule models to plan ahead for different scenarios this fall

With so much uncertainty ahead, it’s nearly impossible to predict what back-to-school schedules will look like. Will we be back to “normal”? Will we have hybrid in-class/remote schedules? Will we continue to be 100% remote? What happens if rolling closures force us to pivot? School districts need to explore various scheduling scenarios now in order to be prepared to respond effectively to whatever lies ahead this coming school year.
