• Bucks County Technical High School:

100% Virtual/Remote Learning Day (12/16): Due to the pending snowstorm tomorrow, BCTHS will have a 100% virtual/remote learning day for students. Students should follow their regular schedule.

• Pennsbury School District:

Wednesday, December 16, 2020

In preparation for the impending storm, Pennsbury School DIstrict will conduct a fully-remote, virtual instruction day on Wednesday, December 16, 2020. All students will participate in their regular Wednesday schedule virtually with planned, synchronous instruction. Staff are expected to treat their responsibility as though it were a typical Friday in the hybrid model. Those who report on Friday should report on Wednesday. We will monitor the weather throughout the day to determine if staff should exit earlier than usual.

Thursday, December 17, 2020

For Thursday, December 17, 2020, we have taken into consideration the joy a “snow day” brings children; yet, we also have taken into consideration the importance of maintaining educational routines that have already been disrupted by COVID mitigation efforts. With weather projections ranging from 8-12 inches of snow and the prediction of potential for power outages, it is likely we will be unable to offer in-person instruction on Thursday.

To support proactive planning, we will only offer a fully remote, virtual instruction day on Thursday, December 17th, but the instructional model will shift to an asynchronous day. Teachers will be asked to post/assign educational activities for that day. Students can work on them at their leisure and will be marked present by completing their work. No office hours will be held by staff on this day. Additional information will be sent to staff Wednesday evening as to whether they are to report to work in-person on Thursday or whether we will enact a districtwide shutdown including schools and offices. This decision will be communicated by 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday.

The School Board Meeting scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, December 17, 2020 will be held virtually. Information on submitting public comments and viewing the meeting can be found by clicking this link.

Friday, December 18, 2020

It has been previously established that each Friday is a day for fully remote instruction and students and staff will follow their respective Friday schedules. If the predicted storm is significant in causing continued infrastructure problems for families and staff, we will reconsider the plan for Friday. Such a decision would be made by 8:00 p.m. Thursday evening if something changes.
