Students in the Trigg County School System will return to in-person learning Monday with the choice of virtual learning still offered.
Superintendent Bill Thorpe stressed that students need to be in the classroom as much as possible and that the school district has a responsibility to the students and their education.
Trigg County, like most school districts in the state, has been on a virtual platform exclusively since Governor Andy Beshear recommended schools go to virtual learning in the wake of a rise in COVID-19 cases.
Thorpe said there have been no known cases of transmittance of the virus within the schools and cases among staff and students have been significantly higher since students have been in the virtual platform.
