Healthy at School safety Update
Grayson County Schools will maintain all safety requirements of the KY Department of Education and Department of Public Health as outlined in the #HealthyAtSchool guidance, along with all updates.
Based on the latest information from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Kentucky Department for Public Health has made the following changes to the document, initially released June 2020:
Updated August 31 - Use of Cloth Face Coverings (Masks): “The use of cloth face coverings (masks) should be required by all students and staff at all times while in the building or on the bus, unless medically waivered. Students and staff should only lower their masks while actively eating or drinking. This change is reflected on pages 7, 8, 9, 10, and 13.”

CURRENT NEWS AND UPDATES
October 16: Grayson County Schools will remain on the current A/B hybrid schedule through Thanksgiving Break.
We will continue to assess our school and overall community health climate, and provide another update two weeks before the end of this next period of hybrid scheduling. It is our hope that by extending this plan, we will then be able to transition into a schedule that includes additional in-person days with students. A November calendar is attached and also posted on the district website.
