Macon County Schools will be on time tomorrow, February 9th, with bus driver discretion.
Unless something unforeseen occurs, schools should reopen on Monday, February 9th, at regular time. Even with the temperatures being above freezing for the next few days, there may still be some areas that have ice. There is a good chance “bus driver discretion” will be in place. If you live in an area that is prone to prolonged ice on the roads, be prepared to transport your child to school or make arrangements to meet the bus at an alternate location. If neither of these are possible, please let the school know that your child was unable to be transported and give your address, as we have to match it up with a bus route. It has been a very stressful time for everyone, but gradually we will get back to our normal lives.
Our school calendar is set up to have Parent/Teacher Conferences on Wednesday, February 11th, which means there will be no school for students that day. Even though we have missed many more days than we normally do by this date, it is understood that many parents use this day to schedule medical, dental, and optical appointments for their children and that these appointments have been made for months and are difficult to reschedule. For that reason, and the limited time to amend the calendar at the local and state level, we will keep the schedule as is for next week. That means, Parent/Teacher conference will still be the hours of 12 pm-6 pm on Wednesday, and there will be no school for students on that day.
In a normal year, parents would have gotten a progress report with their child’s grades up to that point on Friday before the scheduled conference. However, this year, you will need to look at your child’s grades in your parent Skyward account. All parents have the opportunity to have Skyward access. If you do not, please do so. Even though we have missed much time in the classroom since we came back in January, there are still grades for your children.
Anyone who needs access to their Parent Skyward Account, please email the parent name and student name(s) to skywardhelpdesk@maconcountyschools.org.
If parents are questioning whether or not to come to Parent/Teacher conference, considering the circumstances of this year, the answer is YES, parents need to come. It does not matter if you are the parent of a straight-A student or a student who may struggle; you need to stay informed and connected with your child’s teacher. Additionally, your children need to know that you are holding them accountable for their school work, their behavior, and their daily interactions with peers at school.
Macon County Schools is appreciative of your understanding during this unusual semester. We strive to create an environment where your children feel wanted and safe, but also an environment that has expectations for your child’s educational and behavioral growth.
Sincerely,
Shawn Carter, Director of Schools
