KCSD announces switch to e-Learning for Thursday, August 8

All Kershaw County School District schools will shift to e-Learning on Thursday, August 8, due to the forecast for heavy rain and potential flash flooding from Tropical Storm Debby. All afterschool activities and sports are also canceled for Thursday.

All school buildings and offices will be closed.

Teachers will post assignments in Canvas (or will provide paper packets). Specific instructions will be communicated to students and parents from teachers and schools. Teachers will be working remotely on Thursday, and will be available for student questions during their virtual office hours:

Elementary Schools: 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.
Middle and High Schools: 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.

We realize that power outages are possible, so students will have five school days to complete all assignments to be counted present.

Technology staff will be answering technology-related issues by email at esupport@kcsdschools.net.

We will continue to monitor weather conditions and check roads. Any further updates will be posted on our district and school websites and social media, as well as reported to local news stations. Parents and employees will also receive messages from our mass notification system.

KCSD district leaders continue to focus on the safety of our students, employees and families.
