(LAGRANGE) – The Lakeland School Corporation has put a plan together for the 2020-2021 school year.

Lakeland Superintendent Dr. Eva Merkel says information was shared with Lakeland staff and families that the opening of schools is scheduled for August 12. Soon, the Corporation will ask families to sign up for an education plan for the 2020-2021 school year. Merkel says with the one to one technology and skilled staff, Lakeland can offer families some options for schooling and can also be ready if they have to shut down completely again.

Merkel says if your preference is to have your children learn from home, internet access will be necessary. She says the Corporation will be sharing low cost options that are available. Merkel says they will also be expanding wifi access outside of their buildings. She says they are looking at additional resources to help families.

Merkel also says athletics begin on July 6; and graduation for the Lakeland Class of 2020 is scheduled for July 10. Summer remediation and credit recovery will be taking place at Lakeland Primary and Lakeland Intermediate starting on July 13; and at Lakeland Jr/Sr High School on July 14.

Specific information will be coming from your child's school.
