Clayton County’s Beasley to talk remote learning through end of year

Clayton County Schools Superintendent Morcease Beasley will discuss the remainder of the district’s 2020 academic year during a YouTube Live on Monday.

The school system is one of a few in metro Atlanta that has decided not to return to physical buildings for the rest of 2020 because of concerns about COVID-19. Other districts have allowed students to elect whether they want to mix in-class instruction with remote learning.

Beasley will share details about the district’s decision to stick with all-remote learning during the event, which begins at 11 a.m. The school system will reassess in January its plans for the rest of the 2020-2021 academic year.
