LAS VEGAS (AP) — Schools in Reno and Sparks will continue to combine in-class teaching with distance learning despite another spike in COVID-19 cases. In Las Vegas, a proposal to begin some classroom instruction is drawing opposition from unions representing school employees.
The Clark County School Board plans to consider that Thursday. The Washoe County school board voted to keep full-time instruction available for elementary students and a hybrid plan with in-class and remote teaching at middle and high schools.
Meanwhile, Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas acknowledged an increase in the spread of COVID-19. It's advising nonessential employees to work from home.
