The Howard County Public School System had planned for a full-time virtual option for students entering grades K-12 who wished to learn virtually for the 2021-2022 school year. At the Board of Education meeting on June 24, 2021, it was announced that a fully virtual instructional delivery option will be available only to students in grades K-6 who committed to fully digital instruction in the spring. This digital option is a one-year solution designed to help bridge younger students back to normalized, in-person instruction as HCPSS moves beyond the COVID-19 pandemic.
