Director of Media Relations for the Greenville County School District Tim Waller issued the following media release Wednesday.

With the 2021-22 school year in Greenville County set to begin Tuesday, August 17, GCS has prepared a list of answers to frequently asked questions by parents regarding COVID-19 protocols.


Things like:

Will students be required to wear masks in schools/buses?

Will students still be seated in pods with plexiglass dividers?

Will students switch to eLearning if there is a spike in COVID-19 cases?

Can parents join their children for lunch?

Can schools have family fun nights, school dances and school stores?

These FAQs are easily accessible at https://www.greenville.k12.sc.us/Parents/main.asp?titleid=returntoschool, along with a list of provisos passed by the SC Legislature regarding public schools.

Also, enrollment in our 2021-22 Virtual Program has reopened. Greenville County Schools will accommodate as many students as staffing allows. (PLEASE NOTE: Students who previously applied for the Virtual Program, then declined their spots, must contact their school if they decide to reapply as our website is unable to process second applications from the same student.)
