From our partners at the Healthy Kids Clinic: Today's drive-thru COVID-19 testing clinic at MCHS has been canceled.
There will be drive-thru testing sites:
Wed. - Marion County Middle - 8:00-10:30
Thurs. - Marion County High - 3:30-5:30
Fri. - Marion County Middle 8:00-10:30
Don't forget: There will be a drive-through COVID-19 testing clinic today (August 26) at Marion County High School from 3:30-5:30. This is available to anyone -- students, parents, community members -- and no appointment is required.
Due to food supply chain issues -- just like local grocery stores are experiencing -- we are not receiving all of the food we order from our distributors. Our cafeteria staffs are working tirelessly to ensure we follow the posted menus but at times that will not be possible.
Please be aware that beginning Monday, August 23 some bus routes will be adjusted to address capacity and ride times. Read more here: https://www.marion.kyschools.us/article/516756

The following is a message from the MCPS Transportation Department we emailed to families earlier today:
Parents,
Given the circumstances surrounding COVID-19, we cannot currently allow what we historically have called "note riders" -- that is, students who bring a note in order to ride a bus when they typically do not use MCPS transportation. For example, a student would not be able to bring a note indicating that he/she will ride a bus to a friend's house on a particular day. In the past, we've been able to accommodate those situations, but with our current set of COVID-19-related health requirements, this is not possible.
However, we are able to work with families if a student who normally rides a bus needs to be dropped off at a different location. For example, some students may occasionally need to be dropped off at a relative's home.
As we continue to receive health-related guidance, we'll update our procedures and share that information with you.
Thank you and please stay healthy.
Reminder: Our first re-entry date for students currently enrolled in Distance-Learning is September 23. Please communicate with your school if your child plans to return to In-Person learning.
