show moreThe College Station ISD school board is being asked to delay the start of classes.
A special meeting will be held Thursday at 5 p.m. to consider moving the first day from Thursday, August 13th to the following Tuesday, the 18th.
Superintendent Mike Martindale says the 18th, which was the original date, gives teachers three more planning days.
No other changes are being proposed to the CSISD calendar.
Meantime, CSISD has heard from parents representing just over half of the district's 14,000 students about attending classes in person or online.
Martindale said from surveys reflecting 7,200 students, 65 percent chose classrooms and the remainder being taught online.
Martindale says 60 percent of teachers prefer teaching in classrooms and 24 percent have no preference.
