Secondary Hybrid/Cyber (Remote) FAQ
If COVID-19 metrics continue to trend favorably and staffing goals can be accomplished, the District is targeting the implementation of the Secondary Hybrid model and the return of students, under this model, to our buildings beginning the week of October 5, 2020. The Mt. Lebanon Cyber Learning Academy will begin operation this same week for those families who prefer to continue in a fully remote learning environment.
Our faculty is committed to providing our students with an excellent, high quality, academic experience throughout the 2020-2021 school year. As we prepare to transition, here are additional details regarding the learning model in the secondary program (grades 6-12).
