Monday was the first day for students in cohort A, which attends Mondays and Tuesdays in person. Cohort B begins Thursday, with in-person classes on Thursdays and Fridays. I m glad to be back here with my friends, Jimenez said. Well, half of them.
Brian Hill, an environmental science teacher, seemed equally excited to be back in the classroom Monday morning. It ll be great to finally see the kids in-person, Hill said. It s just been names on screens for a long time.
Getting students to school an issue
Ensuring the district had enough bus drivers and routes to transport all its students was a big hurdle to making Monday happen, Columbus City Schools Superintendent Talisa Dixon said.
