WHILE SOME ARE LOOKING FOR MORE DIRECTION FROM THE STATE WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING KIDS BACK IN THE CLASSROOM, GOVERNOR J-B PRITZKER SAYS THEY WANT SCHOOLS TO BE ABLE TO DESIGN THEIR OWN UNIQUE PLANS.

THE GOVERNOR SAYS WHAT MIGHT WORK FOR ONE DISTRICT MAY NOT WORK FOR ANOTHER, AND THAT’S WHY THE STATE ISSUED BROAD RECOMMENDATIONS.

SPEAKING AT A PRESS CONFERENCE IN GENESEO, GOVERNOR PRITZKER SAYS EACH SCHOOL WILL HAVE ITS OWN CHALLENGES, WHETHER IT BE HOW TO HANDLE LUNCH TIME OR KEEPING STUDENTS IN MASKS ALL DAY.

THE GOVERNOR SAYS EVERYONE WANTS TO MAKE SURE STUDENTS AND STAFF STAY HEALTHY AND THAT ACCOMPLISHING THAT MAY LOOK DIFFERENT FROM SCHOOL TO SCHOOL.
