Central Bucks Releases More Details On Fall School Options

DOYLESTOWN, PA — Central Bucks School District families have until July 31 to decide which option they'll select for fall learning.

The district on Friday released additional information on the options, which were approved Tuesday. The district is offering three options for families at the elementary level: traditional, five day in-person; hybrid; or online only. A full look at the elementary options can be seen here.

For the secondary level, families can select hybrid or online only. A full look at the secondary options can be seen here.

The district has also created videos with more information. A video on the elementary plan can be seen here. View the secondary plan video here.

Families must make selections for each child in their household. Families will also need the student’s ID number in order to complete the form.

The district finalized the options it would offer to families when passing the health and safety plan, which includes specifics on distancing, busing, lunch, and more. You can view the full safety plan here.

The plan was created after six action plan committees made up of teachers and staff collaborated. In addition to committee work, surveys were sent to parents and staff to gather feedback on safety and the different options for opening buildings.

The debate over when and how to reopen schools continues to rage across the state and nation.

On Thursday, the Council Rock school board began a six-hour meeting that ended early Friday with approval of a plan for hybrid and online options with a delayed start. The board debated the issue for hours, with four members supporting a plan passed by Central Bucks.
