Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19 through Thurston County, and to minimize its spread on campus, SPSCC is reducing the number of staff and students on campus each day by making temporary changes to Winter Quarter on-campus services and instruction.

Instruction Changes

Classes where face-to-face learning is essential may continue to be fully face-to-face or hybrid with a face-to-face component. These classes may include some of our professional technical classes, lab sciences, music, and studio arts.
