The state of California has revised the benchmarks for each county to meet prior to reopening local industries and agencies.  The state calls this plan the Blueprint for a Safer Economy.  This blueprint identifies four different levels (widespread: purple, substantial: red, moderate: orange, minimal: yellow) based on community spread of COVID-19.  Currently, Monterey County is classified as a widespread (purple) county.

As the Spring 2021 Semester is around the corner, planning for spring instruction and student support services is a high priority.  The sooner we determine our plan for spring, the more time our college and students will have to prepare.

We have scheduled the below campus-wide opportunities to review the state’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy and how it applies to MPC.  Additionally, we will use these opportunities for the campus to have a conversation regarding the development of spring planning.
