Fayette county students return to remote learning thursday.

As has been the case since the pandemic hit last march...some families want their kids back in class....others want to keep their children at home learning online.

No decision from the school board yet tonight...but previously the district announced it will implement what it calls the "in-person learning matrix" and evaluate the spread of covid-19 in the county to determine when students will return to the classroom.

Whenever kids do return to class...families will still have the choice to keep their children at home learning online.

Based on comments posted to our abc 36 facebook page...some parents don't think it's safe right now to return kids to the classroom while others want it to happen because their children are struggling with online learning.

In studio... chelsea smith... abc 36 news.
