Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy is off to a great start for the school year, using its cyclical learning model. In their first week back at school, all HBHA students, K-12, engaged in virtual-only learning, followed by a week of in-person learning during Labor Day week. This week they are back in their virtual classrooms, and, if Johnson County COVID numbers remain steady, the plan is to continue alternating in-person and virtual weeks for the foreseeable future.
