Marion County School District has presented two options for returning to school in the fall:

  • Traditional In-Person Learning: Students will return to campus and attend a full school day throughout the week, with standard bell times and schedules.
  • Online Learning: Students can attend school remotely, following the standard school schedule and bell times, if they are not comfortable going back in-person.

Enhanced health and safety protocols will reportedly be in place, like social distancing, increased cleaning, and frequent hand washing.
