Monday, April 8, will be an eLearning day for Greenville County Schools students due to the solar eclipse.
The eclipse window, when there is the greatest potential for students to damage their vision, coincides with elementary and middle school dismissal times. With student safety being the top priority, this was the best option across all levels.
Schools will not have outdoor activities or athletic practices until after 4:00 pm. There will be no extended-day programs or after-school club meetings.
Because GCS is an approved eLearning district, this day will not have to be made up and instruction will be provided through Google Classroom. Students will complete eLearning assignments later if they are unable to participate due to lack of internet service or other barriers.
Please visit the eLearning announce page for more information.
