WHITEFISH BAY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Whitefish Bay High School will return to a blended learning model on Monday, Nov. 9.

The district encourages all school community members to observe the safety mitigation practices that have allowed the district to sustain most in-person learning and school activities to date. 

"Community transmission is at high to critical levels and continues to increase in the North Shore, county and state," a district spokesperson said. "School community members must continue to make decisions that maximize consistent and correct risk mitigation both inside and outside school. Of greatest importance are to avoid non-essential close contact with non-household members, to avoid non-essential travel, to wear masks, and to practice physical distancing, both indoors and outdoors."

The district says following these strategies, as well as staying home if feeling ill, will allow an in-person modality option to continue as much as possible throughout the pandemic.
