Following a conference call with the Governor’s Office Friday, the Christian County Public School System announced that students will now return to school on April 20.
The closure had originally been between until April 13—spring break falls on April 3 through April 10—but it will now go until April 20. Governor Andy Beshear reportedly asked school districts to extend the current Non-Traditional Instructional plan, with further extension still possible.
Gemmill says, “Schools, teachers, staff, and district staff are working diligently to reach out to families and students. We will continue to make every effort to support student learning through this time. If parents have any concerns about their child’s learning, we are encouraging them to reach out to their child’s teacher for assistance.”
