‘Trib Talk’: What to expect when Utah schools reopen this fall

Most schools and colleges in Utah will likely welcome back students this fall, according to Gov. Gary Herbert.

But what can students, parents and teachers expect after classrooms were shut down in March to avoid spreading the coronavirus? How will COVID-19 affect the educational experience? State Superintendent of Public Instruction Sydnee Dickson and Geoffrey Landward of the Utah System of Higher Education joined Tribune reporter Courtney Tanner live on “Trib Talk” to discuss spacing requirements, sanitation guidelines and more.

You can watch the interview on Facebook or Youtube, and you can listen to the audio on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher or Soundcloud.

“Trib Talk” is produced by Jeni Fitzgibbon and Sara Weber.
