www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com A small group of Gwinnett County Public Schools students will return to the classroom this week for the first time since March.
The district’s phased return plan, which about half of its roughly 180,000 students have opted into, begins Wednesday with kindergartners as well grades 1, 6 and 9. Special education in self-contained classrooms will also return, regardless of grade level.
All grades will be phased in by Sept. 9 for students whose parents opted for in-classroom learning. The district began the school year virtually for all students on Aug. 12. Like other schools, it had moved to online instruction in March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Parents of special education students were particularly vocal about their kids’ need for in-person instruction at a Gwinnett County Board of Education meeting last week. Some families have hired at-home aides to assist special needs students learning virtually. Others have seen their children struggle without the structure and support they find in a classroom.
