High schoolers will begin to transition to hybrid learning "at the middle to the end of January."
"We understand many in our community would prefer our middle and high school students be back in the classroom for in-person learning," the district said in a letter to parents. "Throughout this pandemic, that has been the goal of Dublin City Schools as well. We want all of our students in the classroom, learning in-person from one of the best teaching staffs in the country as soon as possible."
The district said it will continue to monitor data and other factors during winter break.
During winter break, students are encouraged to wear masks, wash their hands, and practice social distancing.
