OMAHA - Parents, students, and teachers in Omaha are looking ahead and wondering what school will look like in August. Some school districts, such as Millard, Elkhorn, Westside, and Bellevue, have announced that they expect all students will return to in-person classes this year.

The Omaha Public Schools have announced that students will be divided into two groups, with each attending school in-person part of the week. In what the district is calling the “Family 3/2 Model,” students throughout the district would be divided into two groups, each of which would attend school in-person part of the week. Students would be divided into the groups based on the first letter of their last names.

Additionally, curricula are being revised and iPads are arriving for students in five distinct waves. For employees, any employee who tests positive for COVID-19 gets 10 days of paid leave. After that, Wakefield said, the employee’s leave would be used depending on the type of medical treatment required.
