Jefferson County Board Members Say In-person Classes Too Risky, Will Vote to Start School Year at Home

The members of the Jefferson County Board of Education plan to officially vote Thursday for students to begin the upcoming school year at home.

Six of the seven board members said they will vote for school to begin on an NTI plan at home.

Here are exclusive details from the Courier-Journal:

“None of us want to be in that situation where we have to send letters to families because we’ve lost a staff member or we’ve lost a student or it spread from a student to a grandmother or a mom or a dad,” said Joe Marshall, representing District 4 in southwest Jefferson County.
