Plans underway in Henry County for fall school start
Henry County school officials plan to be ready whenever the new school year starts.
The leadership of Henry County’s public schools is preparing to start classes on time Aug. 1 while also being ready for possible delays.
In a report to the Board of Education at its May 11 study session, superintendent Mary Elizabeth Davis said that optimistic about starting on time in classrooms but will be prepared to begin a remote learning plan should it become necessary. Even if in-person classes start as scheduled, a virtual alternative will be offered to any family that wishes to continue learning at home as all students have done since March, Davis said.
Separate surveys are going out this month to students, parents/guardians, teachers and administrators to gauge what has worked well this spring and what needs improvement.
