Everything you need for remote and hybrid learning
The Superintendent announced on March 5 that grades 9-12 have the option to return for hybrid learning on April 5, 2021. In this hybrid reopening, you can decide whether you want to stay home for 1) remote learning all week or 2) go to school in-person two days per week and stay home for remote 3 days per week. For those who decide to come to school for a hybrid schedule, if your last name starts A-L, you will come into the building on Mondays and Tuesdays. If your last name starts M-Z, you will come into the building on Thursdays and Fridays. If you have an issue with which days of the week you will be scheduled for hybrid, please contact the Principal, Mr. Crocco at michael.crocco@new-haven.k12.ct.us or call (475)220-7710. We are asking that students and their families discuss these options and then fill out the Survey for MBA Hybrid Return on April 5, 2021. We are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all students and staff, and we will continue to communicate changes as they occur.
