Hamilton County Schools will continue to follow the Phase 3 schedule for the next two-week cycle, which will mean that schools will be open five days a week for on-campus learning and follow the normal bell schedule.
Some schools may experience temporary building closures, which will require remote learning if there is a confirmed COVID-19 case.
All schools will follow the Phase 3 schedule with schools open five days a week for all students opting for in-person learning through Friday, Sept. 25. The district will continue to track the latest COVID-19 data from the Hamilton County Health Department to determine if a phase change is needed. The schedule for Sept. 28 through Oct. 9, will be announced on Monday, Sept. 21, to allow families a week’s notice if there is a change to the on-campus learning schedule.
School-Aged Child Care (SACC) sites will continue on the regular schedule of providing before and after school care during the five-day a week instruction in Phase 3.
The schedule change for on-campus learning does not affect HCS at Home or Virtual School students. Those students will continue to learn virtually from home.
