In the hybrid model, the classroom will include both in-class students and virtual learners. All students, regardless of how they are learning, will be taught by the same classroom teacher. For example, if there are 25 students in the class, 20 may be doing face-to-face learning, while 5 are learning virtually.
Class sizes i.e., the number of students the teacher is teaching, will not necessarily be smaller. However, the number of students who are physically in the classroom will fluctuate throughout the year depending on how many students are learning virtually versus in-class. We anticipate that there will be greater opportunities for physical distancing under the hybrid model.
