Gresham-Barlow School District announces plans for 21-22 school year

The Gresham-Barlow School District has announced it intends to offer full-time, in-person instruction, five days per week in the 2021-22 school year.

The District will continue following the requirements and guidance issued by the Oregon Health Authority, the Multnomah County Health Department, and the Oregon Department of Education. Even so, the District believes that many of the restrictions currently in place will change prior to September 1, 2021, therefore allowing the return to a full schedule of in-person learning this fall.

Instructional options for students in the 2021-22 school year:

Grades K-5 for Fall
In-Person Instruction:
All students will be returning to their enrolled elementary school

Grades 6-12 for Fall
In-Person Instruction:
Students will be returning to their enrolled middle or high school

Flexible Online Instruction with In-Person Options:
A few students, middle and high school, will have access to limited online opportunities based on individual needs. Additional details about the process and timelines for these flexible online options will be shared in the coming weeks.

Individuals with questions about the 2021-22 school year can submit them to GBSD’s online listening system “Let’s Talk” for a prompt response.
