Weather - Distance learning: schools in two districts affected
Following the heavy snowfall on Saturday, schools in two Upper Bavarian districts will remain closed or only offer distance learning on Monday. For the public schools in the district of Mühldorf am Inn, the local state education authority ordered distance learning on Monday. The decision was made to protect pupils in view of the wintry road conditions, it was reported on Sunday.
In the district of Starnberg, classes for grades 1 to 6 at primary and secondary schools have been canceled completely, a spokesperson for the district office said on Sunday. However, emergency care will be provided at the schools. Secondary schools such as Realschulen and Gymnasien can decide individually whether to offer distance learning or cancel classes. There is no provision for supervision at the schools.
