Hi all,

As schools came back to campus this past fall, we each handled our
specialist teachers differently in response to the issue of "cross
infecting" and maintaining stable cohorts. I know some schools just gave up
specialists for the year. We did a specialist-in-residence model and a
group of students had one specialist teacher daily for three weeks and then
moved on to a different specialist. Most of us hope this model never has to
happen again! As we do scenario planning for next year, and decide on a
"worst case" plan in which we have to be restrictive again next year, we
are looking for other possible models.

What did your school do? Was it workable? I appreciate your collective
wisdom and experience!!

best,
Maeve
