PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Working parents are concerned that Philadelphia schools are preparing to reopen remotely. The school district is preparing plans to find a balance between their paintings and what to do with their children if they can’t be home.

With 3 weeks to start the school year in Philadelphia, academics and teachers are preparing for 100 percent virtual learning.

“This week, we’re organizing our annual new worker orientation for more than 500 new educators who are taking a variety of educational sessions to prepare them for a one-time school year,” said Superintendent Dr. William Hite. Thursday.

The existing pandemic has forced the district to start the school year in a practical way and with young people learning at home, the factor arises to make sure it is there to supervise.

City officials are working with the school district to create access centers that provide supervised connected spaces for students who cannot safely stay home on the school day.

While the main points are still being resolved, Mayor Jim Kenney says that the capacity of these centers is regulated.

“I guess we would communicate about 25 or less because of our specifications about the organization’s meeting, as it’s similar to our pre-K PHL operations, it’s less than 25 kids,” Kenney said.

“I don’t think it’s a delivery site that can be just for thousands of young people who have public knowledge here in the city of Philadelphia,” Hite said.

The Office of Children and Families will run the access centers, stating one that reads in part: “To be clear, the city cannot reflect the environment of a school or provide child care to all students in the school district, so the vast majority of schoolchildren will be informed at home, but we will prioritize aid to young people and families with greater needs.

An official announcement on the centre’s plans is expected next week.
