As students in Ottawa schools go back to class for the 2020-21 school year, starting Sept. 9 through May 28, 2021, they will be divided into two groups and attend school in three-hour blocks to allow for COVID-19 precautions. A groups will meet in the morning and B groups in the afternoon. Ottawa superintendent Ryan Cobbs said the main goal is to return the students back safely into a learning environment. “I appreciate parents’ patience and support as we continue to work through these difficult times,” Cobbs said. “We look forward to getting our students back into school and back to learning.”
