Some families in the Edison School District will be sending their kids back to school full time starting today.

Parents had the option for this final marking period to either keep their kids at home learning remotely, or to return to a full, five-day a week schedule, just as it was before the pandemic.

In many instances, less than half of families made that choice.

The superintendent says in almost all cases, the schools are exceeding the CDC guidelines for social distancing in schools.

For those students remaining fully remote, they will follow the same schedules as the in-person students.
