AUSTIN COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) -- Brazos Independent School District says it will no longer offer remote learning starting in January.
The superintendent announced the decision Tuesday night in a letter to parents.
It reads in part, "We believe that nothing replaces a strong connection between our teachers and our students."
Superintendent Brian Thompson then listed the four options for parents:
- Return to school for face-to-face instruction
- Enroll in private school
- Withdraw to a homeschool program
- Transfer to another school district that offers remote instruction
Accommodations will continue to be made for students quarantined due to COVID-19 exposure or a positive test.
Remote learning officially ends on Jan. 6, 2021.
Brazos ISD, in Austin County, has four schools. Enrollment is around 900 students.
