Oxford High School in Michigan is planning for a "slow reopening" by the end of January following a school shooting that killed four students and left secern other individuals injured.
Oxford Community Schools made the announcement on Tuesday and said that students and staff will reconvene in mid-January.
"Our current aim is to have our OHS students and staff reconvene mid-January and begin the slow reopening of our high school by the end of January," the announcement said.
The announcement also said that during the month of December, Oxford Community Schools employees have attempted to contact the families of 1,787 Oxford High School students to gain feedback on potential reopening plans.

The school district is also planning several town hall meetings designed for Oxford families to give feedback on the reopening plans.
Ethan Crumbley, 15, is being charged as an adult in the shooting and is accused of killing four students and injuring seven others, including one teacher during the Nov. 30 shooting at Oxford High School.
Ethan's parents, James and Jennifer Crumbley, were charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter following the school shooting, as the Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald said that James Crumbley bought the weapon found at Oxford High School at a local firearms store on Black Friday.

The Sig Sauer 9mm handgun, according to McDonald, was held in an unlocked drawer in the parents' bedroom.
Attorneys Mariell Lehman and Shannon Smith, who represent James and Jennifer Crumbley, however, deny that the gun was in an unlocked drawer.
