Since Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear recommended last week that schools wait until September 28 to begin in-person classes, most schools have set their schedules and some have already started, but a handful will decide this week. 

The McCracken County school board will hold a special meeting today at 5:30 to discuss a number of proposed options. Last week their superintendent endorsed Beshear's recommendation for the in-person delay.

Carlisle County will also meet tonight. Marshall County's school board will meet on Thursday, as will Fulton County.

Seven school districts in the Jackson Purchase and LBL area have said they will follow Beshear's recommendation and have only virtual classes. However, ten districts have already started in-person classes or have announced that they will soon. 

Here is a list of school districts and where they stand:

Ballard County - In-person classes beginning August 31, some virtual instruction available August 26
Caldwell County - Virtual classes only beginning August 24
Calloway County - In-person classes beginning August 24
