HDS plans to open for full-time, in person classes on September 8, 2020, barring any State of Maryland Executive Order preventing us from doing so. Some families may elect* to participate in classes online via live streaming, rather than attend in person classes. Online participation means that your child will attend most classes via live streaming Google Meet. Supplies and materials required for classes will be provided to families electing to participate remotely; however, some materials, such as musical instruments and other limited supply shared items (i.e. microscopes for Science) will not be provided. Additionally, homeroom and advisory will be live streamed; however, there may be limited to no access to live streaming for some outdoor activities and classes.
*Tuition will not be discounted for families electing to keep children home; tuition discounts apply only when the school is mandated to close and when distance learning days exceed 30.
