N.C. Governor Roy Cooper announced Feb. 2 that all N.C. schools should reopen in Plan A, as Covid-19 number decrease. (Port City Daily/File) On Tuesday, Gov. Cooper urged all 115 school districts across North Carolina to resume in-person learning in grades K-12 this month. He pointed to data and science released recently as promising and safe for students, teachers and staff to return to classrooms: K-5 in Plan A, and middle and high school in Plan B. “We’ve learned much more about this virus since last March,” Cooper said. “It’s time to get our children back in the classroom.”
