SaranacMiddle School

With the new guidance from the Health Department and feedback from the community, Saranac Central School has made a change to our learning model. An excerpt of the changes to the Opening Plan is below and the whole document can be found here.

Our plan will increase in-person instruction for students in grades 7-12. Our greatest challenge is regarding space.

• Saranac Elementary 5th graders will return to their home building from the Middle School.
• Morrisonville Elementary 4th graders will return to their home building from the Middle School.
• 6 th graders will continue to attend in person every day.
• 7 th and 8th graders will increase from attending in-person from 2 days per 6 day cycle to every day.
• In addition, the 7th and 8th graders will be housed in the Middle School as opposed to the High School.
• High School students will increase from attending in person from 2 days to 3 days per 6 day cycle.
• In order to accommodate the increased in-person instruction, tents will be utilized in some areas to continue to provide appropriate physical distancing (for example during meals, special area instruction, etc.)
