KCSD announces e-Learning day for Thursday, January 23
Based on the current road conditions and expected overnight well below average freezing temperatures, Kershaw County School District announces an e-Learning day for Thursday, January 23. The National Weather Service is predicting hazardous road conditions, particularly on untreated or secondary roads, through midday Thursday. All KCSD office buildings and schools will be closed.
All KCSD extracurricular and after-school activities — including sports practices and games — are also canceled for Thursday, as well as district meetings and adult education classes.
Teachers will post assignments in Canvas (or will provide paper packets for younger students). 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.
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.
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.
We understand that weather-related schedule changes can create inconveniences, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we prioritize the safety of our entire KCSD family.
