DCSD Parents:
We understand that families are anxious to hear what school may look like this year. While final decisions are still in the planning stages, we can tell you that as long as we remain in the Green Risk Level, it is likely that school will begin in our buildings with various restrictions at both buildings. DCSD will also offer a K-12 online learning option for children or families at higher risk. More details regarding restrictions, online options, and other details of the back-to-school plan will be made available as soon as plans are finalized. Divide County School District takes the health and safety of our students, staff, and community very seriously and appreciates your feedback and patience as we prepare for our upcoming school year. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
