Joplin High set to return to full in-person learning

Beginning in phases next month, Joplin High School students will return to the classroom full-time after being on a split schedule since August that included remote learning.

Starting Monday, March 1, freshmen will be back at the high school full time. Sophomores will come back full-time on March 8. Juniors will return on March 15, with seniors starting on March 28.

The Joplin Board of Education voted unanimously to approve the plan Tuesday night after cases of COVID-19 have been dropping in the area.
