Vacaville School District Superintendent Jane Shamieh said Tuesday that “this return to a ‘new normal,’ ” but fully in-person school year has been a long time coming.

The district has been working since the end of the previous school year in June to make in-person learning possible.

More than 8,100 students will return Thursday to the nine elementary schools, one K-8, two middle schools, five high school teaching environments and one adult school, except for those few who opted out and chose an independent study program.
