HENRICO COUNTY, Va. -- A decision about when in-person learning will resume for the Henrico County Public Schools students who chose it should come Feb. 4. On that day, the Henrico School Board will hold a special meeting to receive a recommendation from its health committee about the return to school and an update about the status of vaccination efforts for school employees.

At the board’s Thursday meeting, health committee member and HCPS Chief of Staff Beth Teigen told board members that the committee was weighing two options – returning students sometime after all HCPS employees who wanted to be vaccinated had received their first shots, or waiting until after they all had been fully vaccinated.
