Guys, last monday madison county students began to return to classrooms in a transitional week -- with students separated by last name and only attending school in person for two days.

With students getting a taste of what the new academic experience will be like, one mother tells me her son said aside from the masks -- it's not all that different.

Now she says she has no worries about the full return and looks forward to being able return her son's education into the hands of professionals.

"for me, i'm just really excited for him to go back because i didn't go to school to be a teacher, that's not what i do.
