Hundreds of thousands of suburban children are resuming schoolwork within the next few weeks, but this year fewer than 6,200 of them will go back to their classrooms full time.
Only 9 of 105 suburban districts are offering “in-person” learning, the Illinois State Board of Education reports.
Another 30 of the suburban school districts will open with a “blended” model, where students are split into two groups and alternate between remote learning and in-class sessions.
The remaining 66 suburban school districts will have full-time remote learning, with kids having classes exclusively online.
Those opening for in-person learning are:
- Butler Elementary District 53 in Oak Brook
- Glen Ellyn Elementary District 89
- Grass Lake Elementary District 36 in Antioch
- Itasca Elementary District 10
- Medinah Elementary District 11
- Rondout Elementary District 72 in Lake Forest
- Roselle Elementary District 12
- Rosemont Elementary District 78, and
- West Northfield Elementary District 31 in Northbrook
