School Opening Information

 School Opening Information

Below is a statement from the school district concerning a change in the date we will open for in-person school. Feel free to email or message me if you have any questions!



FOR RELEASE September 18, 2020

School will open for in person classes in Scott County on Wednesday, Oct. 14, 2020. 

Families in Scott County still have the option to choose what best meets their needs, whether they plan to send students to school in person or elect to continue virtual learning.  Teachers will be in contact with families to determine plans specific for each student. 

For your planning purposes, please note that virtual learning will continue as scheduled through Friday, Oct. 2.  The week of Oct. 5-9 will be Fall Break.  Oct. 12-13 will be used to transition between virtual and in person, allowing time for students to complete their virtual learning program and schools to make needed changes to the master schedule to accommodate all students. 

We cannot wait to welcome our students back to school safely on Oct. 14!  We will also continue to offer a high-quality virtual learning program for anyone who feels more comfortable with this option.  This is a unique time that requires patience, flexibility, and understanding.  Families can make changes throughout the year to meet their individual needs by working directly with their school of attendance. 

Scott County Schools continues to work closely with health and government officials and the Kentucky Department of Education following Safe at School guidelines to keep students and staff safe.
