Watertown To Begin Hybrid Learning In Some Schools After State Announces Audit
WATERTOWN (CBS) --Some Watertown Public Schools are shifting to hybrid learning next week after the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education announced it would audit the district over its timeline for bringing students back into the classroom.

Hybrid learning will begin for middle school students the week of Nov. 9 and for high school students on Nov. 30.
Parents will be receiving more details about procedures.
Superintendent Dede Galdston will be holding a Reopening Forum over Zoom next Tuesday evening to recap the first day back.
Watertown is currently in the yellow on the state's coronavirus risk map.
