DCSD to remain in eLearning through Jan. 22

After listening to input from administrators, teachers, parents, and community members
regarding the COVID-19 situation in Darlington County, the Darlington County School District (DCSD) Board of Education and the superintendent have made the decision to remain in eLearning mode for the week of Jan. 19-22. All DCSD schools and district offices were already scheduled to be closed on Monday, Jan. 18, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
There will be no athletic or extracurricular activities during that week, including practices, conditioning, or matches.
The district will not serve meals on Monday, Jan. 18. However, the district will continue to serve meals Tuesday-Friday next week from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. each day. Pick-up sites will remain the same.
End-of-course testing in English 2, Biology, Algebra 1, and U.S. History will be administered for some high school students next week, as required by the S.C. Department of Education. For those students, teachers will contact them about testing and transportation.
The district plans to resume face-to-face classes on Monday, Jan. 25.
