Per Governor Doug Ducey's executive order which mandates all schools to reopen for in-person instruction by March 15th or "after spring break." As the article makes clear, most will be in person by the 15th, yet many schools still remain in the "high exposure" and therefore cannot open safely. The Arizona Department of Education is still in discussion with school leaders and health officials to implement the practices to ensure a successful reopening.
