Cumberland County Schools transition to Plan A April 12, 2021

Students in Cumberland County in NC are headed back to the classrooms. Cumberland County released the following statement:

CCSSafeReturn: In alignment with state law and the StrongSchoolsNC Public Health Toolkit, Cumberland County Schools (CCS) will transition to Plan A beginning Monday, April 12, 2021. The Cumberland County Board of Education approved plans to transition students in grades PreK-12 from Plan B to Plan A during a Special Board meeting Tuesday evening.

Under Plan A, students in grades PreK-12 will be eligible to attend class in person on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday of each week. Wellness Wednesday will be an Independent Remote Learning Day for all students. School-based virtual learning options remain open to students.

Families are invited to complete the CCS Learning Options Commitment Form, allowing them to confirm their child’s learning option through the rest of this school year. Students who are currently taking part in Plan B (Blended Learning) will automatically be enrolled in Plan A. However, families are able to switch to full-time virtual learning if desired. If the families of students who are currently participating in full-time virtual learning do not complete the form prior to the deadline, they will remain virtual through May 2021. Students enrolled in the virtual academies are not eligible to transfer to another school in the district and will remain at the virtual academies through May 2021.

Commitment Forms are due on Monday, March 22 at 5 p.m. Learning selections will remain in place through May 2021.
