SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) — Parents and guardians of some Caddo public school students are apprehensive about the start of in-person classes Monday, Aug. 23.
And they say they’ve asked the Caddo School District office whether there will be a virtual learning option.
Ann White, concerned about her granddaughter attending classes in person, told KSLA News 12 that she has been told there is a waiting list. And when she inquired, she said, she also was asked whether they had received a letter.
The School District confirmed Tuesday, Aug. 17 that there is a waiting list.
“All Caddo families were presented with a virtual option for the 2021-2022 school year during the spring semester before school let out,” Caddo Schools spokeswoman Charnae McDonald told KSLA News 12. “This information was communicated through all channels, including automated calls/texts, emails, website and school social pages.”
Vernell Alexander says she fears COVID-19, having lost three friends she said had been vaccinated and had no underlying conditions, and wants the virtual option for her child. She said she too was told that her child would be put on a waiting list.
Parents still can have their children placed on the waiting list for virtual learning, McDonald said. They just need to contact Brenda McDonald, executive director of school performance, by sending email to Bmcdonald@cadoschools.org
Virtual students will follow the same academic calendar as traditional learning students, Charnae McDonald explained.
The Caddo School Board meets at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17.
