The majority of Defense Department schools that educate the children of the U.S. military are moving ahead with plans to return with in-class instruction later this month amid the ongoing Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus pandemic.

More than 110 intend to return children to the classroom but 43 on bases where the highest level of restrictions have been imposed due to the outbreak plan to start the new school year teaching virtually.
