Students arrive for classes on the first day of school at Penn-Trafford School District’s McCullough Elementary on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020.

Penn-Trafford School District students returned to school Thursday — or at least, most of them did.

The district originally planned to have a full reopening, but changed course earlier this month to meet state coronavirus guidelines.

Students in grades K-8 will attend school as normal, but have the first seven Fridays of the year off.

High school students will be split into two groups that attend school on alternate days, receiving online instruction the rest of the time.
