KENTUCKY — At least 155 of Kentucky's 171 school districts have announced they plan to hold in-person instruction four or five days a week for all students by March 29. 

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear also signed a bill requiring all schools in the state to resume some form of in-person instruction, thus making the legislation law across the Commonwealth.

While some are excited about the return to normalcy in the classroom, many school districts and families are having to adjust to extended quarantining as a result of exposure to the virus because of their return to in-person learning. 

Max Wise of Campbellsville is a Republican member of the Kentucky State Senate and also serves as the chairman of the Senate Standing Committee on Education. During this In Focus Kentucky segment, Wise weighs in on the return to in-person learning for students across the Commonwealth.

"I think it's just very comforting to see. I know some districts started back sooner than others," Wise said. "But I think as we can look at the Commonwealth, it's just great to see that schools are opening. School buses are running and kids are back in a safe and happy learning environment."
