ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - One South Georgia school system is planning for the upcoming school year and they need your help.

Sumter County Schools is considering several reopening options amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Those instruction options include in-person, at-home or a combination of both.

So, school officials are asking all parents to fill out the Return-to School survey.

Officials said it’s important to incorporate parent input in the final decision.
