Dear Monrovia Unified Community,
I hope you were able to join us last night as our Elementary Task Force presented their recommended model for hybrid instruction. This collaborative and dedicated group of teachers, parents, support staff, and administrators investigated many models over the last couple of months and realized no single model would meet the disparate needs of our community. The proposed model presented last night is unique to the MUSD community.

Dear Monrovia Unified Community,
On Feb. 15, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (LACDPH) announced that L.A. County had reached the threshold that allows elementary schools – TK-6 – to reopen for in-person instruction. As MUSD middle schools begin at grade 6, they are structurally different from elementary schools and are not included in the reopening plans at this time.
Dear Monrovia Unified Community,
Last Friday, I shared updates about the criteria for the reopening of schools and information about vaccines. Much has happened over the last few days and that information needs to be updated yet again.
Dear Monrovia Unified Community,
Since the beginning of the pandemic, we have learned a great deal, and both national and international studies increasingly demonstrate the relatively low COVID-19 transmission rates in younger children. According to the latest "California Safe Schools for All" guidelines, elementary schools will be allowed to open much sooner than middle schools and high schools. For that reason, much of the work done to develop safe in-person instruction has been based at the elementary level.
Dear Monrovia Community,
