Governor Cooper announced on July 14 that North Carolina public schools can reopen this fall on Plan B which offers a hybrid approach of in-person and remote learning with staggered scheduling, moderate social distancing, and other safety measures. School districts have the flexibility to opt for Plan C (all remote learning) as needed. Plan A (full reopening) is off the table at this time. At its regular meeting on July 20, the board discussed the reopening options at length. The board agreed to meet again on July 27 to choose the re-opening plan that will guide school operations for this fall.
Over the summer, Transylvania County Schools has gathered input from stakeholders and developed a district reopening plan that would allow schools to operate safely and effectively under all three plan types (A, B, and C). The district plan incorporates specialized plans for individual schools. It also includes an online learning path for families who choose all-remote learning at home* in the event that Transylvania utilizes Plan B. We encourage families to review the complete 2020 re-entry plan and online learning path available at https://tcsnc.org/district_info/coronavirus. The plan may be updated as conditions change across the state and in our community.
*The deadline to apply for online learning is Thursday, July 30, 2020.
The board will approve a re-opening plan for Transylvania County Schools for the 2020-2021 school year.
