Naperville Unit District 203 parents are urging school leaders to offer a full-time schedule for in-person learning, saying hybrid instruction is not sufficient to meet the academic and social-emotional needs of students. Administrators on Monday pointed to current COVID-19 data, capacity limits and updated public health guidance as logistical challenges for accommodating the 71% of students who favor classroom learning over an online-only option. But Superintendent Dan Bridges said his team is "actively planning" to expand in-person instruction at all grade levels as community transmission rates decline, likely after spring break. "Bringing the greatest amount of students back for an increase in the amount of learning time has always been our goal, " he said. "We're hopeful the metrics will continue to allow us to get there this school year. " Models for an adjusted in-person schedule are expected to be presented at the March 15 board meeting, Bridges said. The remote option also will remain available.

My approach has always been to be open and honest and to govern in a transparent way, which is evident from my participation at board of education meetings. Along the way, I have encouraged and listened to the comments and suggestions from our community on both sides of every issue. This past year has been dominated by the global pandemic and our implementation of remote learning. I have worked to prioritize the health of our students, their families, our teachers, staff and community with providing the best education possible under these harrowing circumstances.

Frustrations were exacerbated Monday when about 60 community members were not allowed inside the board meeting due to capacity limits, said Michele Fenton, a mom of two sixth-graders. Initially, they were told they'd be able to address the board one at a time as other speakers left, she said, but once the meeting started, they were informed they could not enter. "It's our legal right to be able to voice our concerns to the board, and we were stifled, " Fenton said. Spokeswoman Sinikka Mondini said the district has been adhering to a 50-person limit at board meetings, leaving about 25 spots available for the public during the COVID-19 pandemic. Those who were unable to speak are encouraged to submit written comments via the Let's Talk platform, she said. "It is our practice to not exceed the 50-person limit in our school buildings and to not mix cohorts of people, " Mondini said. About half the group stuck around during the public comment portion, waiting outside Naperville Central High School in freezing temperatures and listening to the livestream on YouTube, said Jena McKinnon, a mother of four District 203 students.
Since 1997, Naperville has been named among the top five "kid-friendliest" cities in the nation according to Zero Population Growth. The U. S. Census Bureau agreed in their 2004 report "Children and the Households They Live In. " Naperville is home to two nationally recognized public school systems and a number of highly rated private schools. Average scores on standardized tests, such as the Illinois Standard Achievement Test (ISAT) Program and ACT and SAT college entrance examinations, consistently rate among the highest in the state and in the nation. Additionally, graduation rates far exceed state and national averages. North Central College, in the heart of downtown Naperville has been an integral part of the Naperville community for more than 125 years. A number of other higher education institutions have primary or satellite facilities in and around Naperville providing residents an opportunity to advance their learning.
