Atlanta Public Schools will forgo live, virtual teaching Friday because of continued power outages.
The district announced Thursday that it will reserve Friday as “a non-instructional day for students” because of uncertainty about when power will return in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Zeta.
“Students have access to online tools for any self-guided work and should use this time to complete homework or address incomplete assignments. Administrative staff will have access to district buildings on Friday, and essential workers, including custodians, maintenance workers, transportation staff, and school resource officers are expected to report to their work site at their usual time to help with recovery efforts,” the district said.
The district canceled virtual classes Thursday.
Virtual learning is expected to resume Monday.
