We asked about your remote learning experiences. Here's what you said

By Brian Rosenzweig

Students and parents have expressed that remote schooling has been difficult in terms of socialization and equitable opportunities. 

  • In a CHCCS survey, over 50 percent of respondents said they would return to in-person learning
  • Ruth Williams, the parent of a kindergartner at Glenwood Magnet Elementary School, said her son's transition to online learning has been extremely difficult 
  • The district has not yet made a final decision about when students will return to in-person learning

Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools

Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools is one of two public schools systems in Orange County. The system is run by the CHCCS Board of Education, which is comprised of seven elected officials who hold four-year terms. Under the board is the superintendent. The current superintendent is Tom Forcella.

The district includes 11 elementary schools, four middle schools, four high schools, a middle college with Durham Technical Community College and a school for children at UNC Hospitals. These schools serve more than 12,000 students across Orange County.
