Staff members from Oklahoma City Public Schools are reflecting on the first week back to in-person classes, after learning virtually for almost a year.
OKCPS sixth grade teacher Lisa Ummel-Ingram says she s happy to see her students faces in class instead of just dots on a computer screen.
The district returned to in-person learning this week.
Ummel-Ingram says teaching kids in person is a vital part of what she does. She says it was emotionally difficult for her and her students, coming back for only one-week last semester, just to go back to virtual a few days later.
