PRINEVILLE, OR -- Crook county schools will have K-through-3-students back in the classrooms on September 8^th. Spokesman Jason Carr says they hope to learn early next week if they can have 4^th through 12th graders back soon. He says ironically once students are back in class the thresholds become less strict. Carr says this year students will be separated into groups known as cohorts. The cohorts will go to class, recess and lunch together all year long. Carr says working parents in the district are happy their kids will be back in class this year.
