LEGEND: Dates in red cells indicate vacation days, when there is no school. Dates in light blue cells indicate 100% distance learning days for all students.
For each row, the “DL COHORT” column indicates which of the three color cohorts is in distance learning that week. Where a color is not listed, the school is either on VACATION, or in 100% DL (distance learning), as indicated.
