School in Session April 8, 2024
RENEE HOLMES

Scott County Schools will be in session and on regular schedule on Monday, April 8, 2024.  This is the day of the solar eclipse where our community will be in a partial viewing area. 

The district has considered all options related to the eclipse.  The best place for students to learn about the eclipse is at school under the instruction of teachers.  Other factors contributing to this decision include the disruption of work schedules and childcare arrangements for families.  NTI days cannot be used in this instance.

Student safety is very important to Scott County Schools.  As a district, we believe this is a wonderful learning opportunity for students.  Schools are planning a variety of activities to allow students to participate safely including indirect viewing and video live streaming.  Teachers will instruct students in the classroom on proper safety measures related to the eclipse.  

If parents decide to take their children out of school on April 8, 2024 to view the eclipse, we will honor this decision.  Parents can complete an Education Enhancement Opportunity Request Form outlining plans for the day and the educational value for students.  Completed forms should be turned in to the school principal for approval prior to the absence.  Once approved, it will not impact the student’s attendance and students will be able to make up all assignments.

Communication Plans for Scott County Schools
RENEE HOLMES

​Communication is very important to Scott County Schools.  We wanted to remind you of ways you can expect to receive important communication directly from the district.  

In the event of school cancellation due to inclement weather or similar circumstances, SCS will send both an email and text message through our Infinite Campus messaging system.  Parents/guardians with enrolled students will receive these messages automatically.  No sign up is needed.  

Parents, it is important that your telephone number and email address are accurate in our system.  If there is a question, please contact your child’s school.

SCS will also post important information on the official district website (www.scott.kyschools.us) and utilize the official district Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/scottcoschools).  We also work with the following local news outlets: Georgetown News-Graphic, Fox 56, LEX 18,  WKYT 27, and WTVQ 36.

SCS will not communicate through other social media platforms (Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, X, or others).  If you receive communication through any of these formats, please know this was not distributed by the SCS district and may not be accurate information.  

You may also receive messages directly from your child’s teacher and school through a variety of sources including ClassDojo and Remind messaging systems in addition to Infinite Campus and official school social media accounts.
