(New Carlisle, IN) - New Prairie School District has announced its plans for starting the second semester.  Superintendent Dr. Paul White notified school families Friday afternoon.

The school board weighed input from an online survey and public comment at an open meeting on Monday night.  School leaders have decided to stick with 50% attendance for a two-and-a-half week period following Christmas break.  This is a departure from the week-to-week monitoring that had been happening. The school board will decide in early January how to proceed from there.
