Many big schools districts will continue remote learning in the fall

Many schools are still weighing the risks of reopening in the fall.

School districts including L.A., Long Beach, Glendale, and Pasadena have announced they will start the new school year online. In Orange County, Santa Ana, Anaheim, and a handful of other districts have also decided on distance learning, which goes against a controversial recommendation made by the Orange County Board of Education.

That plan recommends kids, grades K through 12, return to classrooms this fall without social distancing measures or face covering requirements. Daily temperature checks, frequent handwashing, and a nightly deep cleaning of classrooms are recommended.
