But now, as we look towards the future, many school districts are faced with the difficult task of planning for in-person instruction once again.<\/p>\n<p>In Clayton County, we have been working hard to develop a reopening plan for 2023 that will ensure the safety and well-being of our students, teachers, and staff.
