CCMS Back to School Info.
Colleton County School District will return to learn fully face-to-face on August 16! In order to make our transition to fully -in-person learning as smooth as possible, we have included the latest back to school information below:
COVID-19 Mitigation Measures
Protecting our staff and students while we make this transition to fully in-person instruction remains CCSD’s top priority. In order to keep our school facilities as safe as possible as the district returns to school, CCSD continue to utilize the following practices:
- Students and staff members can voluntarily wear a mask on district properties and school buses.
- We will encourage district employees and students to receive COVID-19 vaccinations. We will work with regional healthcare providers to schedule vaccine clinics that can be hosted in our facilities.
- Desk shields/barriers will be available for use in all of our school facilities.
- Schools and buses will be cleaned daily, and comprehensively disinfected once per week.
- Air purifiers will be placed in all CCSD classrooms.
- Students and visitors will undergo temperature checks upon entering district properties.
- Social distancing will be enforced on district properties when possible.
- Students and staff members will be encouraged to regularly wash their hands and practices other sanitation techniques.
- Water fountains will not be in operation on district properties, but the water bottle filler stations placed at schools will still be in use. We ask that all students and staff bring water bottles with them to school so they can use the bottle filler stations. Students will be eating in their school cafeterias where possible.
Please note that the above practices may be revised as we receive new guidance from state and federal authorities.
