Hey everyone have a safe and healthy fall break next week!
Friday, October 2 will be an NTI day for Marion County Public Schools. This means all students will work independently from home.
Those enrolled in Distance-Learning will not have their typical live video sessions; however, teachers will be available by email if you have any questions.
The reason for this decision is due to confusion surrounding the school calendar. The original 2020-2021 MCPS school calendar included October 2 as a part of the district's Fall Break; the revised calendar did not, although this change may not have been clear to all families. By making October 2 an NTI day, we feel we can best accommodate our families.
For current juniors interested in applying for the Governor's Scholars Program, make sure you visit Laurie Followell's online help center here: https://www.marion.kyschools.us/o/mchs/page/gsp-application-help

MCPS wants to give a very heartfelt 'Thank You' to Diane Erjavec who recently donated 300 handmade cloth masks for staff and students as part of the Mask Up KY and Coverings for Kids campaigns.
Marion County Public Schools has been back to optional in person learning a little over two weeks now! As a senior at the high school I have to say that at first I was very worried, there have been a lot of changes implemented. However, I believe that these changes have not only made our school safer and cleaner but an overall more positive environment. From the changing of the lunch line, the extra cleaning and the change from seven to four periods, my schedule feels so much more manageable and I feel that the school has taken every precaution to keep our students safe. Whether you choose to stay online or to come see the amazing staff in person, Marion County Public Schools is going to ensure your child the best education possible.
