Burbio School Opening Tracker- Now Including State Averages
This is a fast-moving situation, as indoor-masking rules are being adjusted by Governors and businesses across the US. The K-12 examples above are all in states led by Republican Governors that in general have school years that end over the next two weeks. K-12 school years in the Northeast and West Coast, where indoor mandates remain in place for schools even as Governors have begun lifting them for vaccinated individuals outside of school environments, go much further into June.
This separate analysis indexes each county by learning plan for 2020; we anticipate these regions being traditional in 2021. Note that with virtual opt-outs existing even in traditional districts there will be a change in activity versus 2020 depending on the sector.
K-5 Students:
1.9% attending virtual-only schools (from 2% last week)
22.8% attending schools offering hybrid (from 23.5%)
75.3% attending schools offering traditional (from 74.5%)
