Yaseen Mousa moves through the halls of Harrisonburg High School, backpack on his shoulder. The freshman weaves in and out of the throngs of students, saying the occasional hello to people he knows.
He stops by a classroom to check out a bulletin board about a forensics club meeting. After his first two classes he heads to the cafeteria to eat lunch with his friends. They talk about an upcoming football game and plans to attend.
At the end of the day, Yaseen stops by his locker and grabs some books, while putting others away. He then gets on the bus and goes home. The end of another normal day.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) - There was a lot on the agenda for the Harrisonburg City School Board work session Tuesday evening, including the plan to introduce more high school students back into classrooms.
Starting Monday, March 22, 9th and 12th graders who are failing one or more classes can return to in-person learning. Struggling 10th and 11th graders can get back in the classroom Monday, April 12.
