There's a lot to consider with schools reopening this fall. That's especially true for teachers and other staff members. Take Ken Hilton—he's a middle school counselor in Laramie, Wyoming.

This piece was produced by the Mountain West News Bureau's Maggie Mullen and was made possible with the support of America Amplified.
