Second Semester Recovery Plan - Jan. 12, 2021

As we move into the second semester of the 2020-2021 school year, please see the following information.  Please understand that this information is subject to change along with guidance from the Governor’s Office, the West Virginian Department of Education, the Local Health Department and the Marion County Board of Education.

In-Person Instruction will begin on January 19, 2021 according to student’s cohort at individual schools and dependent on the WV DHHR Map for Marion County.

The second semester will begin on January 21, 2021.

• Marion County Schools will operate on the two-day blended model upon return January 19 and continue on that model until further notification.  Marion County Schools utilized this same model the first semester.
• Individual schools are completing their own registration for the second semester regarding blended, distance or West Virginia Virtual School.   Please contact your respective schools for information regarding registration.
  
  

Please understand:

1. Students who register for distance learning cannot switch until the end of the third nine weeks.
2. Students who register for blended learning may choose later to go to the distance learning model but must then stay there until the end of the third nine weeks. This will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
3. Students registered for the West Virginia Virtual School must remain there for the semester unless notified by the individual school in relation to Marion County Virtual School Policy 2370.01.

• Meals will be prepared at the individual schools on Wednesdays unless notified otherwise.  Meal pick-up times and locations will be determined at the respective schools.
• Buses will resume picking up students on January 19.
• In-Person Instruction will continue unless the WV DHHR Map for Marion County shows RED.  This map is updated daily at 10:00 a.m.  If the WV DHHR Map shows RED, all students will begin remote learning and will remain remote for no less than five calendar days.  Marion County will return to In-Person instruction when the WV DHHR map shows Orange, Gold, Yellow or Green for five consecutive days and in conjunction with the Marion County Health Departments guidance.  Please look for a School Messenger Message from Marion County Schools to keep you informed.
