Dear Monroe County Schools Students, Staff, and Families:
Based on Governor Brian Kemp's order to further assist in minimizing the chances of contracting or spreading COVID-19 (Coronavirus), Monroe County Schools will be closed through Tuesday, March 31, 2020. We will provide updates as we get them regarding re-opening.
We will continue to provide instruction through our Alternative Learning Days platform through Friday, March 27, 2020 and will be communicating with teachers, students, and parents regarding future Alternative Learning Days beyond this date. Thanks for being understanding, supportive, and flexible during this most uncertain time. We are committed to working with all stakeholders to help overcome this deadly disease. At any time, if you have questions or concerns, please contact your child's school or central office.
We will continue to communicate with federal, state, and local officials to determine when we can safely resume daily school operations. We all are hopeful that this situation passes quickly and we can get back to seeing our students each day. We are definitely missing them.
Department directors and principals will provide all staff members with staffing assignments and plans for the days and weeks to come.
