Albuquerque Public Schools will not cancel online classes due to snow storm

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.- As New Mexico prepares for a snow storm,
the Albuquerque Public School district announced there will be o delays to remote learning.

According to the district, online classes will not be canceled due to inclement weather.

However, schedules for students who attend in-person special education classes may be impacted by the weather. The district said those families will be notified about whether there's a need to move the class online.

APS said accommodations will be made for student who lose internet access during a storm. They are encouraged to touch base with their teachers to make arrangements for make up work.

As long as teachers are teaching at home and do not have to report to school, it makes sense not to cancel remote learning for snow days, IMO.
