Virtual Learning At Dubuque Schools Transitions Smoothly

Dubuque public school students are learning virtually as district officials seek to mitigate the potential spread of COVID-19 following the Thanksgiving holiday. While online school looks different based on students’ age groups, officials said on their first day that students and staff seem to largely be making the transition well so far. At the secondary level, middle school students are receiving live instruction each day, while high school students remain on a hybrid schedule similar to when they alternate in-person and remote learning days. On days when high school students would have normally been physically at school, they have live virtual classes. On the opposite days, they have assignments to complete independently.
