Dallas County Health and Human Services issued a number of control orders on all public and private schools for students from kindergarten through grade 12 on July 16, including the order that school systems will not re-open for on-campus, face-to-face instruction until after September 7, 2020. Prior to Labor Day, all Dallas schools must rely on virtual, remote or distant learning.
The order also stated all school-sponsored events and activities, including clubs, sports, fairs, exhibitions, academic and athletic competition, will not start until on-campus instruction starts. Two weeks prior to opening, schools must submit a written plan for resuming on-campus instruction and extracurricular activities to the Local Health Authority and make the plan available for parents and students.
While this does not affect Tarrant County school systems, like CISD, it does show how other schools in the Metroplex are preparing for the fall semester.
