News.

Joining us now live via zoom is limestone county superintendent dr. randy shearouse.

Dr. shearhouse - good morning and welcome.

Pause here we are in this "new normal" - first day of school has arrived.

For parents, students and teachers watching, what do you tell them about the preparations you have made for them to return to a safe environment?

What do you tell parents who are concerned their kids might get sick at school - and even perhaps being the virus home?

Of course - with the statewide mask order in place through the end of the month.

Go over for us how that and other social distancing will be monitored in limestone county schools?

There is no doubt the potential for an outbreak.

How will you be prepared to react in the event that happens?

We know you will begin the day at creekside primary and creekside elementary school.

Tell us how you will be involved as students arrive.

Let's talk about the virtual option now.

What happens if parents send their children off to school, then become uneasy and they prefer they stay home.

How difficult is it to switch to virtual instruction?

Last minute guidance for parents about to send their children on the bus or drop them off?

Limestone county superintendent dr. randy shearouse.

Dr. shearhouse thanks for joining us ... good luck with the new school year.
