From Dr. Hembree:

COVID-19 testing will take place on the following dates in our area:

Announcement from Mrs. Wideman, Principal of MMS

The district has decided to move to total virtual instruction/learning beginning Thursday, December 10, 2020.  There will be no face-to-face beginning Thursday.   All instruction will be virtual through December 18, 2020.

We will return to the Hybrid schedule when students return on January 6, 2021.  COVID-19 numbers will be monitored during the winter break.  If you are able, I encourage everyone to get tested over the winter break.  The district will be placing a Google form on the district website over the winter break. It is asked that you complete this form if you test positive, or you are in direct contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.  Notifying the district helps to prepare for student and staff return in January.

 Parents/Guardians/Students:

• Virtual classes and coursework will continue as it is. All students will need to log-on virtually with his/her teacher during his/her regular class time.  Attendance will be strongly enforced.
• MAP testing that was scheduled for Wednesday, 12/9 and Friday, 12/11 of this week will be RESCHEDULED to a later date. You will be notified in advance of the new testing dates.
• Benchmark testing (nine week testing) will be administered after winter Break.

 Students:

• Make sure you communicate with your teachers in Google Classroom every day. If you have questions about classroom assignments, email your teachers directly.
• Athletics will continue but without spectators.

 Thank you for your support and cooperation in making sure your child is in class virtually every day.

Important Information from Dr. Hembree

• All students will need to wear a mask upon entering school and on all school buses.  All car riders will also need to wear a mask upon getting out of the vehicle and walking into school.  Students will be asked to wear a mask throughout the instructional day.  
• Each student will have his/her temperature taken upon arrival to school.  If students have a fever, they will be taken to our designated isolation room (one per school) and will remain there until a parent/guardian can pick them up.  
•  We will begin meal deliveries this week.  Students will be provided with breakfast and lunch on the “off days” if participating in a hybrid model, and of course, will be provided with breakfast and lunch each day if participating in our virtual academy.  All students will be provided with breakfast and lunch on Fridays as well.  If you do not wish to receive these meal deliveries, please contact our cafeteria manager, Mrs. Deborah Walls.  However, if you wish to receive the meal deliveries and do not receive them, please contact Mrs. Walls as well.
• Lastly, you will be receiving some guidance from our district nurse, Mrs. Marjorie Batchelor, which outlines DHEC policies and procedures that we will follow.  Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or need additional guidance as it pertains to COVID-19 and the procedures we will follow.

Let’s have a great first week back, Chiefs!  The best is yet to come.
