FRANKFORT, Ky. â In an executive order signed Friday, Gov. Andy Beshear recommends Kentucky schools in counties with critical spread of coronavirus delay resuming in-person learning until Jan. 11, 2021.
Per the order, all schools will be allowed to return to in-person learning on Jan. 4, even if that school is in one of the 116 red counties on Kentucky s COVID-19 incidence rate map. But, the state recommended that schools in those counties consider waiting an extra week before reopening classrooms to prevent the spread of disease following the holidays.
