Statement on COVID-19 Impact

Perrysburg Schools pivoted to remote learning on 3/16/2020 following our school closure due to COVID-19 precautions on 3/13/2020. Classes met using an asynchronous schedule that allowed for greater flexibility, fluidity, and individualized pacing, and involved a variety of web-based learning systems and discussion platforms. Regarding Semester 2 grading, students who satisfactorily completed at least 80% of all assignments for 4th quarter received a “P” grade. A “P” had the weight of a 4.0 for regular classes, a 4.5 for Honors, and a 5.0 for AP classes. This weighting was averaged into the 3rd quarter GPA to determine the semester grade. For the 2020-2021 academic year, school began on schedule on 8/18/2020 with in-person instruction two days per week and remote learning three days per week, normal letter grading regardless of instructional method, and distance learning available if requested.
